Vanguard Security and Technology has a new contract: To investigate mysterious spacecraft being launched by Antemyst, a tiny island nation run by Gifteds. But to successfully infiltrate a country full of superhumans--and to destroy technology potentially infused with magic--they'll need the help of Levi, an equally mysterious warlock. Can the team set aside their mistrust of nonhumans for the sake of their work--or will Levi prove that their fears were correct all along?
