Seventeen-year-old Lilian Riden has a natural talent in expressing her feelings through singing, but the girl gives up being herself and her dreams at the behest of her father who desires a different future for his daughter. It will be Daniel Kerman, leader of the musical group 'The Judges', who will bring out Lilian's true nature and have the band participate in one of the most important competitions in New York. The many and influential acquaintances of Lilian's father, Nicolas Riden, and the boys' meeting with the fascinating and mysterious dancer Jad Stenford, will create problems for the group and unexpectedly destabilize Lilian's life. Jad's real name is Keyr, he does not represent a simple human being, and he knows many hidden secrets inherent to Nicolas' life. In addition to a pact they made when Lilian's father was very young, they are linked by shady deals with the leader of the Chinese mafia Roshin Louzimin, rival of another criminal and drug trafficker who has been wanted for years by the American police Jeremyas Fallen. The power that Keyr will acquire over time will be used to realize his plans, always hindered over the centuries by another otherworldly Sylian creature.
