Alexandra Markum, former Olympic equestrian gold medal winner and powerful seer for the Cherokee race often struggles to accept the reality of her metaphysical capabilities. She and her friends believe that they will find serenity in the small northwestern Illinois town of Grand Detour, where they can live out their lives in the uncomplicated atmosphere of a refurbished equestrian retreat. Then an old friend calls and wants Alex's help with a missing persons case and Alex finds herself camped in the middle of mystical Cahokia Mounds and locking horns with the U.S. Marshals office and her exboyfriend, Ian Valin. Surrounded by a Native American secret society, extremely large mythical creatures, and a mysterious woman in sapphire, Alex becomes overwhelmed when someone close to her is brutally killed. The final straw is when a powerful prophecy is revealed that could spell her impending doom, and Alex must face one of her greatest fears if she wants to save those around her.
