Deunan and Briareos are both partners and lovers. As members of E.S.W.A.T., the elite forces serving Olympus, they are deployed everywhere trouble strikes. The two fighters find their partnership tested in a new way with the arrival of Tereus who uncannily resembles Briareos before the wartime injuries that led to his becoming a cyborg. Together, the three work to preserve peace in the city-nation of Olympus. Then, Olympus finds itself under a stealth attack. Cyborg terrorism and deadly nanotech zealots, along with rioting citizens, are just some of the threats that Deunan must contend with as she fights to save Olympus.
