Queen Mab releases the stasis fields holding two Minotauri warriors in suspended animation. They have only one assignment to complete if they wish to keep their freedom – bring the Banshee clan the head of Sh'lainn Blaze.
But Sh'lainn won't stay in the protective confines of the Alliance Bunker. Her death visions show Nick being killed, and she won't let him die trying to protect her. Her only alternative is to flee the Minotauri bounty hunters… alone.
