Wizard and T-FLAC agent Lucas Fox's magic shorts out while he's teleporting, and he crashes at a Medi-Spa in Brazil. Author Sydney McBride runs into wounded Lucas and, figuring that there's one hell of a book in his story, she hides Lucas from the soldiers hunting him. Lucas had been trailing a criminal when he landed at the spa. Is something sinister going on? As Lucas and Sydney investigate, they discover a terrible operation that may be linked to terrorists. While Lucas would like to keep Sydney far away from trouble, his magic only works reliably when she's near.
