And he isn’t too happy about that.Callie Stone arrives in Chicago with one purpose in mind: to sell one of her dead husband’s prized possessions.

Brought face to face with the mysterious organization after the relic, Drake knows he is dealing with something evil. Because the devil inside him is stirring once more.With no option but to join forces with a pair of ruthless mercenaries, the reluctant associates are cast into a race to uncover the organization’s dark intentions and the true nature of the artifact.
