"After defeating Dr. Hatch and the Elgen, Michael and his friends' attempt to return to a normal life isn't as easy as they thought it would be. They also soon learn that "normal" doesn't always last. Taylor's prophetic dreams are becoming more disturbing. When she dreams of herself locked in a cage surrounded by bats and a burning city, she fears that the Electroclan's time of peace is coming to and end and that battling the Elgen was only the beginning of the dangers the Electroclan would face. Could it be that, like the myth of the Hydra, cutting off the head of the Elgen only created even more dangerous enemies?" -- jacket flap.
