Eine junge Archäologin gerät in ein Netz aus dunkler Besessenheit, Geheimnis und Verführung. Im antiken Griechenland bestand eine der zwölf Aufgaben von Herakles darin, einen goldenen Apfel aus dem Garten der Hesperiden zurückzubringen. Für die Archäologin Oriel Anderson scheint es ihr eigener goldener Apfel zu sein, als sie die Chance bekommt, sich einem Team griechischer Taucher auf der Insel Helios anzuschließen. Doch der Traum wird zum Albtraum, als sie den teuflischen Besitzer der Insel, Damian Lekkas, kennenlernt. Schockiert erinnert sie sich an eine romantische Nacht in den Armen eines Fremden vor sechs Jahren. Doch nun steht ein ganz anderer Mann vor ihr. Während sie die Schwerter kreuzen und Leidenschaften aufblühen, ist sich Oriel bewusst, dass böswillige Augen sie aus den Schatten heraus beobachten. Dunkle Gerüchte werden über die Familie Lekkas geflüstert. Welche Gefahren liegen in Helios verborgen, einem bezaubernden Land, in dem noch alte Rituale durchgeführt werden, um die Götter zu besänftigen, junge Männer ihr Leben in den tückischen Tiefen des Ionischen Meeres riskieren, und die brüchige Erde jeden Moment auseinanderbrechen kann? Wird Oriel die verborgenen Schätze finden, nach denen sie sucht? Oder wird Damians tragische Vergangenheit sie einholen und beide verschlingen?
