Oliver Jones, a man who once discovered he had the power to change reality itself, used to be called the most dangerous man in the world. Now he's joined The Araneae Group, a team of paranormal investigators under the command of Artemis, a seemingly immortal ten-year-old girl. Things that used to seem fantastical, like vampires and werewolves, are now as commonplace in his life as getting a cup of coffee in the morning. But Oliver's ability to change the world around him is no longer working. Even when his life is in the utmost danger, he finds that he's no more special than any other man. Things take a turn when a cyborg, the lone survivor of a civil war on another world, confronts Oliver's teammate Sally Rain. Sally, once a high-ranking officer in her army, was responsible for his people's extermination, and he wants revenge. While the cyborg is quickly dealt with, Sally is haunted by the terrible memory of what she did at the war's end. She wants a chance to set things right, and she knows just the person to help her do it. Because Oliver Jones is still the most dangerous man in the world. He just doesn't know it yet.
