Just when things were looking up for Than and Therese, everything crumbles. Eighteen-year-old Therese Mills has second thoughts about marrying Thanatos when she learns that no god has ever been faithful to his wife.

The rebellion led by Hades prepares to storm Mount Olympus, but their every move is sabotaged. Morpheus is torn between his allegiance to his Underworld family and the oath he swore to Zeus under duress. Forced to play both sides, Morpheus sees no hope for the rebellion.

And even Hestie's fierce determination isn't enough to overcome her trust issues. As the gods square off, how can one identify the friend from the foe?

Zeus and his allies want to bind Prometheus and kill the twins before their threat of a revolution becomes a possibility. If Hermie and Hestie don't find the Titan first, they have no chance of fulfilling their destiny or of surviving Zeus's threat against them.
