What will it take to fix a broken world? Alpha for the few remaining Sea Shifters, Leif's been playing fast and loose with death for years. Plagued by a poisoned ocean, treacherous sea gods, illness, and bad bargains, he's learned to roll with the punches. Setting ancient antagonism aside, he joined a small group of land Shifters, pledging both his help and that of his pod. Moira's a vulture Shifter who was trapped in Ushuaia for a decade. Life on Arkady, a small polar cruise ship, has its challenges, but at least she's free. The worst parts about her stint in Ushuaia were sneaking around hiding from Vampires and not having enough magic to shift, courtesy of short rations and toxic air. Leif is drawn to Moira, but Sea Shifters don't mate with their land cousins—ever. Moira works overtime to catch Leif's attention. He's damned attractive, but he spends most of his time as a dolphin. Besides, they have their hands more than full. Not only is there no time for love, there's barely time to breathe as they wend their way through a volatile obstacle field scattered with demons, hostile gods, and ancient horrors bent on their destruction.
