David Daegan's mundane existence is turned upside down and inside out when an accident almost takes his life. While trapped at the bottom of an old outhouse on his grandparents' abandoned orchard, David's nightmares begin to reveal extraordinary powers and a hidden lineage bathed in blood—a lineage that is to be his destiny.
The Pandu Order, a secret organization tasked with keeping balance between Earth and a distant planet called Orong, worlds connected by pinpricks in the fabric of space, invites David to take his place in the Order, just as his ancestors before him.
David is faced with a paradoxical decision. He must leave behind his family and the woman he loves to join the Order or stay and watch the people he loves parish at the hands of an enemy he has only met in his nightmares. David's decision will alter the course of his life and the worlds around him.
