Captain Justo returns to the faraway galaxy of Seratia through the same harmonic portal he entered into two and a half years earlier. Earth is behind him, but he brings several passengers along for the ride, Tucker, his new bodyguard, Christopher and Daniel, together with the whole Sterling family. . . including the incredibly beautiful Amber.

Deep in Seratian territory, Captain Justo makes a desperate attempt to sneak his starship through the most guarded region of the universe. His plan doesn’t go well. Pursued by Uncle Cenric from behind, pirates up ahead and the entire Seration Confederation fleet coming in from every other direction, he is forced to once again put his trust in Cridoa, son if Cerdic, a warlord pirate and the same man who sold the starship Isian to his father several years earlier.

When Captain Justo, Mr. Sterling and Daniel are captured, Christopher and the rest of the family find safety inside the massive battle group carrier Leviathan. As a result of their escape they discover they are descended from the same Atlantean warriors who built the enormous starship. . . a ship that comes alive at their touch. The Leviathan holds even more dangerous secrets. . . the questions now are . . . could the ship really be haunted and what are the best floors to stay away from?
