A mysterious discovery leads one woman to stumble upon a startling secret of the ancient world... Annalynn Gallagher is an archeologist working the find of the century with the last person she ever wanted to see again: Dr. Ian Broody, the man who'd ruined her life. Now trouble is brewing at the dig and Anna is determined to prevent the past from repeating itself. Some secrets should stay in the dark... As she delves for the answers about the rising turmoil she finds only more danger. From her dig site to her home back in the States, she encounters sabotage, ominous tails, and threats to her safety and sanity. Seeking help, she turns to a man with a history darker than her own. ...or they will drive you over the edge. Sam Abrams left the blackness of his past behind a long time ago. With his career as a professional fighter on the rise, he has little interest in aiding a prim and proper archeologist with her issues - especially when he has enough of his own. Then he catches sight of what's followed Anna and can't turn away. Some things have to be fought... At Anna's dig site, an ancient evil stirs awake. As it reaches back into the world, Ann and Sam land in the heart of a dark storm that could mean the end of them. ...others have to be survived. The clock has started ticking and the world may never be the same.
