Jake is a pawn in a game he doesn't understand.

Plagued by a barrage of abnormal energy around him, Jake is unaware of the power he possesses, and the part he plays. Hidden among the non-magic world, he knew he was different, and when his father disappears in a cloud of smoke, Jake finds himself thrust into a fight for which he's not prepared. A fight in which more than his life is at stake.

Hounded by the malevolent group called the Dark Knights, Jake discovers he holds the key to the Drogue--a mysterious object that the Dark Knights have sought and killed for over thousands of years. Nobody remembers where it came from, but whoever has the Drogue holds a dangerous power. In a deadly race against the Dark Knights, Jake searches for his father and the Drogue.

For where the Dark Knights go, death follows.
