For Landon Sommers, the assignment seemed too simple. He just needed to hop on a private jet, fly to the Caribbean, and escort two children back to Montana.

When their straightforward mission takes a dangerous and unexpected turn, easy and boring are tossed out the window.

Rick had worked for Lighthouse Security along with his brother and some of the best people he’d known when he got out of the SEALs. That’s when he met her…a coworker’s sister. Sexy. Smart. And a CIA op stationed in Egypt. A few nights with Abbie made him wish for more, but she was back to the land of the pharoahs before he had a chance to convince her to stay. Needing to forge his own destiny apart from his brother, he joined the LSI partner company in California.

On their way to and from the mines, the miners are kept secure in a locked wagon. The wagon is not locked to keep them from escaping. It’s locked to keep the demons from getting in.

If someone were to learn the truth, they could undo my greatest work or worse.

For many of us, teaching is not a job, it’s a calling. And if you’re listening this, I’m quite confident that you feel the same way. We entered this profession because we give a damn and we want to make a difference. We become ourselves when we step in our classroom. We know how incredibly rewarding affecting hundreds or thousands of young lives can be. And how big of a responsibility that is. One we don’t want to fail.

Will has thrown himself into a new level of warfare. Using plausibility, Peace was able to fashion platinum-rank corruption, enough to kill everyone in the superdungeon. Nynn saved himself by tossing the effects of this bomb into the Beyond, which was good. This carried the potential of blowing up a solar-system-sized chunk of that plane, which was not. Will managed to seal the corruption within the tunnel his demon-bound skill formed, but then the demon itself got a bit loose and devoured far too much of the dark energy.

Will has two years to deal with the fires on his planet before another one hits it. It’s time the wider world realized who he is.

Victory can still be achieved, if they are willing to bear the cost.
