An epic portal-crossing adventure unfolds as Will Roan, a skilled deep-sea submersible pilot, grapples with a stark contrast between her successful career and tumultuous personal life. Haunted by the presence of little gray aliens who have stalked her throughout her life, Will has avoided confronting her disturbing experiences, fearing they might reveal her mental instability. This facade of normalcy has kept her isolated, never allowing her to form close relationships or settle down. However, the relentless pursuit of the grays threatens to dismantle the barriers she has built. Following a terrifying incident that costs her job, Will returns home just in time to receive a mysterious object from her dying mother—a beautifully carved crystal skull that may hold the key to her sanity or pull her deeper into madness. With the promise of crossing a portal to Atlantis, her true home, Will's instinct is to flee. But when her young niece Becky goes missing, seemingly taken by the aliens, she is compelled to venture into the unknown. In Atlantis, she discovers a stunning world filled with vibrant life, yet political unrest simmers beneath the surface. As Will navigates the dangers of both realms, she grapples with self-doubt and questions her sanity, realizing that the fate of three worlds may rest on her shoulders.
