Ian DeRose. Code Name: ARIES -aggressive, dominant, first in line to lead.

Zodiac Tactical is his company. They guard, protect, rescue...eliminate the threat when nobody else can.

Ian has always made sure there was nothing in his life he couldn't live without.

Until Wavy Bollinger.

She's the artist who sees colors everywhere and greets the world-and Ian-with a smile. He knew he shouldn't come near her from the beginning, but her gentleness was his undoing.

And now a monster has taken her, caged her, to get even with him.

His code name is Aries. And he will burn the world to the ground to get her back.
