In The Nexus, Sykes discovers the origin of his extrasensory powers: a covert, prenatally conducted genetics experiment. He develops his extraordinary psychic abilities with the help of a mystical gemstone in The Abraxas Stone while attempting to evade black ops agents in constant pursuit. In this third and final volume, Sykes goes to New Orleans to protect his new friend, Evan Nouveau, from the possible consequence of a vision. Together, they continue to fend off undercover operatives with aid from the most unlikely sources: a Vodou priestess, a rogue government agent, and an enigmatic Southern heiress. Will they succeed in vanquishing their oppressors or will they fall victim to a fate worse than death?
