"Your enemies will outnumber you. Your armor will define you." A second war in heaven is sparked by the actions of Azrael: the Archangel of death. After his banishment, Angels all over existence flee to earth, masquerading as gods. Hints of their genetic code-and the unlocked powers therein-live on through the millennia, hidden in the bloodlines of their descendants. Best friends, army Rangers Jarrod and Austin, are invited by a secret agency to participate in a program that would make them the ultimate weapons. The “Double-Helix” unlocks hidden abilities in the Angels' human-born descendants by reprogramming dormant code in their genetic makeup. As the lifelong friends argue about their choices, debating the values and virtues of committing themselves to a life altering procedure, they don’t realize forces beyond their control have already begun dictating their futures. William Sanderson, project leader of the "Double-Helix," knows the program is not without its consequences. All participants will no longer be themselves, except for a new recruit ready to join the cause. A child from Sanderson’s past returns fully grown, carrying with him unknown heartbreak, lies and countless thousands of years worth of warfare from the spiritual realm.

A sect of half-breed "Descendants" with paranormal abilities looks to quell the investigations of disgraced Scotland Yard detective, Emma Brighton after she has a run-in with an Ourea: human looking creatures composed of the five elements. Known as the Elemental Knights, these beings were created by Zeus to assist in his war against Michael. Now Oreios, thought to be the last Ourea, must team up with Emma to save his creator, even if it means destroying his former allies and truly becoming the last of his kind.

Sometimes you risk becoming a villain in order to be the hero. Since recovering memories and incredible abilities nearly two years ago, an insatiable lust to grow more powerful has consumed Jarrod. Now that urge puts the friends he has left in mortal danger. The only way to protect them is to accept isolation. However, Jarrod has made promises and intends on staying with those he cares for until his pledge is upheld. The Light of Souls has been disrupted and replaced with a fake. The Assassins, three angels from the fallen Corners living out their penance, are charged with eliminating the perpetrator. When their sights turn to Jarrod, he and all those around him are marked for death. With the most dangerous killers in creation hunting him down, Jarrod must learn to evolve his powers without losing control. When new alliances are formed, and old ones turn sour, Jarrod must decide once and for all if he's a hero, or a villain waiting to be unleashed.
