It’s a terrible thing to find and lose a child in the same breath.
Twenty years ago, O’Neill left the Pinch Point Kalikoia reservation as jie’van—outcast—after the woman he loved betrayed him and no one believed his powerful spirit gift was real. He disappeared into the shadowy world of special ops, becoming one of the most lethal warriors the world has ever known.
Now the apocalypse is coming, and O’Neill has been called back to Shadow Mountain as part of an elite Kalikoia war command. But he’s still an outsider, still shunned—until the day everything changes.
When the woman who broke his heart arrives to collect her son’s body after a failed mission, he learns a devastating truth: the nineteen-year-old dead warrior was his son. The son he never knew existed. And there’s more—the boy had a twin sister. O’Neill has a living daughter who carries a spirit guide as powerful as his own.
But her spirit gift is a warrior’s totem. And his daughter has never held a weapon.
Thrust into the role of trainer and protector, O’Neill must teach his daughter to survive when the spirit world is fracturing, enemies are closing in, and humanity’s extinction looms. But his greatest challenge isn’t the coming war—it’s learning to trust again.
His daughter needs more than warrior skills to survive what’s coming. She needs a father. And that means the man who’s perfected pushing people away must find a way to let her in before it’s too late.
With time running out and everything at stake, O’Neill faces an impossible choice: the isolation that’s kept him alive, or the family bond that might be humanity’s only hope.
