In the high mountain passes of Ancient Greece, the mortal Psyche and her lover, the fallen god Eros, are waiting out the unnatural heavy snows. The seasons are out of kilter: the gods are angry... and with good reason. Psyche has a mysterious weapon in her possession: an adamantine blade capable of killing a god. Because of it, Eros has been expelled from Olympus, and the gods are looking for them both. Now, as Eros's divine powers start to wane, it's all he can do to keep them both safe.
When the gods are at your back, where can you hide?
Eros and Psyche decide to journey to the infamous isle of Atlantis, a place where the gods once walked, and where now, a tyrannical king keeps the island nation in his grip. Eros hopes to find his father, the war-god Ares. Psyche, too, has reason to believe she might be reunited with her family on Atlantis, where many refugees have traveled. But when the two reach the fabled island, although it is as lush and beautiful as the legends say, it holds dangers they could never have imagined. And when Psyche is reunited with her family, it's under the strangest circumstances imaginable. The further Atlantis draws them under its spell, the clearer it will become that nothing is what it seems. Will promises of his former glory draw Eros away from her for good? As the world seeks to divide them, rebellion foments outside the castle walls.
War is coming.
And soon, to save those she loves most, Psyche will first have to betray them...
