Once upon a time a young boy with antlers lived in a little house under the earth. He had a father and two nannies. They raised him to be good and to obey their every command.

Father says the boy is a weapon against those who stand in opposition to humanity, while the rebellious Undersider dissidents believe the child to be the second coming of a mythological savior from the past. Haunted by dreamlike memories of a life he never lived and hunted by the man who created him, the boy must choose what and who he will be, and bring this chapter of his life to a close.

Da aber sucht ihn seine ehemalige Feindin Pearl Jones auf, die von Skinner einst zur Vampirin gemacht wurde, und sie hat eine letzte, verzweifelte Mission für ihn: Die Grauen Händler, die der Finsternis dienen, wollen die Hölle auf Erden entfesseln, und das ausgerechnet zur Zweihundertjahrfeier der USA. Nur Skinner und Pearl scheinen sie noch aufhalten zu können ...
