Als Jomar ein Schwert tief vergraben im Acker seines Vaters findet, deutet er das als ein Zeichen des Schicksals: Es ist Zeit, sein Dorf in der lakanischen Provinz zu verlassen und hinaus in die Welt zu ziehen – um ein Held zu werden.

Die Vergangenheit hat Krallen. Und sie hat sie gerade geweckt. Petra hat nie darum gebeten, mit alten Eiden, den gefallenen Söhnen des Himmels oder einem Symbol, das nicht aufhört, sie zu verfolgen, verbunden zu sein. Ihre Suche nach ihrer Herkunft ist zu einem Wettlauf gegen die Zeit geworden: Sie muss ein Archäologenteam vor einem Erdbeben retten, das nur sie vorhersagen kann, eine Verschwörung aufdecken, die so alt ist wie die Wächter, und sich nicht von einem gefährlich faszinierenden Akademiker ablenken lassen, dessen Charme sie vom Kurs abbringen könnte.
