After his previous mission fails to go to plan, Lucas Wright finds himself once again being promoted for no reason. Suspecting things are far from on the level, he begins his own private investigation into the group for whom he is working.
His findings will lead him to a neighbouring city, where people are disappearing under suspicious circumstances, and where the people charged with investigating the disappearances seem intent on covering them up.
Finally, he is forced to mount a rescue mission into the uncharted wilderness areas of his world. A mission that will, at last, hint at the source of the so-called Cultist menace. A menace which he already knows is far more sinister than any mere cult.
Given his own uncertainty about the security of his group there is one question that concerns him most.
Do they know he's coming?
