They call him the greatest hero who has ever lived. I call him the man who slaughtered my family.
That night I learned the truth about monsters. They wear the faces of heroes.
I’m the girl who ran. The little red-head who escaped, and Olympus forgot. For twenty years, I've lived in the shadows while the world worships my family's killer, knowing I can never face him. He's untouchable, beloved, divine. I'm nobody.
But now the gods are offering the strongest of heroes a prize nobody thought possible. Immortality. And we all know he’s going to win.
I can’t let that happen. An eternity of his cruelty is unthinkable.
To stop him, I have to become one of the four heroes to enter the twelve deadly trials. And fates, am I the underdog. No money, fame or status. But, I have friends. I have Rage. Plus, I have a god on my side.
I might actually stand a chance, until everything is turned upside down by Alexios, son of Dionysus, and the worst person I’ve ever met. He’s everything I hate; charming, powerful, beautiful and rich. And, he tricks me.
Now I’m forced to pretend to the world that we’re in love. If I don’t, Hercules will know exactly how to finish what he started twenty years ago.
But I'm not the terrified child who fled anymore. If taking down a hero kills me, so be it. Because whatever else happens, Hercules must die.
