Emily Trigger is on a mission with her elite team. The Prodigal Suns are on the hunt for Heka, the ancient marauding god of magic.

But first, they have to find him.

Someone helped Heka escape his long sleep in the Amazon jungles, and the old god wants to make up for lost time. First on his list was getting back some of his power. Next, gather even more power — one innocent victim at a time.

Step number three: Rebuild his army of mindless, empty, zombies, and what better place to start than with a nearby village of innocent Amazonian locals?

Emily and her fellow soldiers need to stop that from happening, no matter the cost. Turns out, Emily may be the key to everything. Her new powers brought on by the blast of magical ammo in Russia may be just enough to stop the angry god.

Maybe.

That is, if she ever tells anyone about them and learns to harness her powerful, new abilities.

Will her fellow operators grow suspicious enough of her secret to cause a rift among the team?

Or can she open up to the Prodigal Suns she's only just met and learn to trust a unit that might be just as wary of Emily as she is of getting close to anyone?

The Prodigal Suns are piecing together the mystery of what brought Heka back, racing against the clock before he can wreak more havoc than they can clean up. Will they find him in time?
