When Patrick arrives in Chicago undercover to hunt for a powerful artifact, he quickly discovers that the city's political landscape is just as treacherous as its supernatural one—especially when his estranged twin sister is involved in dangerous cults and the local gods aren't exactly welcoming. Meanwhile, back in New York, Jonothon faces deadly hunters and is forced to make a choice that could shatter the hard-won trust he's built with Patrick, the man he loves. As ancient forces literally claw their way toward the shores of Lake Michigan, Patrick and Jono must navigate fractured trust, reunion chaos, and an existential threat that demands they work together—or lose everything. This is a gripping urban fantasy that weaves together political intrigue, family trauma, supernatural danger, and a romance tested by impossible choices.
