Once eighteen-year-old Connor Moore stumbles across an almost human species, he is faced with history’s darkest secret, a daunting future, and a love life he can’t even begin to explain. Concealed throughout the pages of time, there has been a powerful race of human-like creatures manipulating mankind. This Elite race is made up of five ruling families, who have obeyed The Law and remained content to keep their identities a mystery. Now after centuries of secrecy, an ancient foe is forcing them out of hiding. When a dark-haired mystery woman named Laren crosses Connor’s path his life is turned upside down. Soon Connor is taken on a heart-pounding journey that leads to a startling discovery of who he really is and a daunting future of what he is to become.

Lives will be lost, prophecies fulfilled and trials endured. Connor Moore doesn’t have the same luxury as other eighteen-year-olds. He has been called upon to assume the mantle of the Judge of an Elite race of humans. Now to prove himself to a population who doubts him, he must pass a series of three trials that will test his mind, body and spirit. Things are made worse when two women vying for his affection finally meet and Connor realizes a decision must come soon. However, there is little time for personal life when an ancient evil force returns to the realm of men and Elites. If he fails to pass the series of trials to prove his claim as Judge and earn the Elite race’s support, the world will have no hope. With the support of friends and loved ones, Connor embarks on his trials. He begins a journey that will take him from dangerous jungles, to lost islands and dungeons not of this world. Friends will fall, new allies will be made and true darkness will make its presence known.

History has referenced him but not by name. The leaders of the Elite race thought they had imprisoned him forever, they were wrong. Vercin has returned from his captivity to extract vengeance on the world and claim his throne once again. The Elite race is at the brink of war, but all hope is not lost. Connor Moore has passed the trials, the ancient set of tests designed to prove or disprove would be judges. His problems; however, are far from over. Vercin has discovered a way to dormant the Elite gene. What makes matters worse is that he also has Laren. Connor is soon faced with choices that will not only impact him but the future of man and Elite alike. The board is set, the pieces are ready, and the fate of the world will be decided by the victor.
