Waking up on his day off, Alex Fry (Beams) sees an impenetrable magical barrier in the sky over his hometown of Golden City. It turns out that the barrier was constructed by the Zero Knight called Mirar, who has come to Golden City to avenge the death of his fellow Zero Knight from the previous book.

Yet Mirar leaves nothing to chance, sending his deadliest servants after Beams to ensure he cannot save the city.
