Moc má vždycky svou cenu. Alchymie je skryté umění proměny. V Angel City ji dva soupeřící zločinecké syndikáty prodávají ve formě drogy, která lidem dá vše, co si přejí: krásu, intelekt, charisma. Město tak balancuje na hraně mezi luxusem a zločinem, zdvořilými dohodami a krvavou válkou. Sam sní o úniku z chudoby a je ochotná riskovat cokoli, aby se dostala mezi členy Grand Central. Ari, vychovaný Lumines, je jejich největší zbraní. Kdysi se milovali, teď stojí na opačných stranách konfliktu – a ten může zničit město i je samotné.

A year has passed since superstar Winter Young last saw secret agent Sydney Cossette.

So when Sydney shows up at his studio with a new mission from Panacea, Winter has no choice but to accept. With no time to lose, the duo heads abroad to rescue a fellow agent -- only to learn he is none other than Sydney's ex. Of course, nothing is ever simple when it comes to Winter and Sydney. As old flames give way to new jealousies, they find themselves ensnared in yet another treacherous plot that's much more sinister than it seems. To make it out alive, they'll have to figure out how to be partners again -- and if they can resist something more.
