When Ann Kerwin left Earth to become Queen of Raz, she had no idea what she was getting herself into. Now, five years later, she has developed the skills and knowledge that has given her the reputation for being a Queen worthy of ruling Raz. From another galaxy, the Augurs request her alliance. She is ready to meet with them when an emergency comes to her attention. She must go to the Nicals and retrieve the Stone of Immortality which the Nicals stole from the Olympians in their quest to survive a severe plague that destroyed all but a handful of their people. The Augurs meet with Hathor instead and send him and Queen Ann to the lost city of Atlantis where they will meet old friends, confront an old nemesis and learn the genesis of the Olympian rulership. Ultimately, Ann will be forced to protect her unborn child, the next Queen of Raz, from those who would destroy her.
