New glitzy mountaintop home of the Greek Gods.The story kicks off when Tilly Hunter comes to ornithology expert Professor Jason with a strange request. She wants him to find her son's father. A talking swan.Jason knows his birds. Swans don't talk, nor do they seduce women. This was Godly work.Years ago, the Gods ruined Jason's life. Jason's ready for some payback.Jason takes the case.He finds himself caught up in a tempestuous and incestuous celestial soap opera. The star is Big Ben Bolt, formerly known as Zeus.

Their daughter Demi, nasty-tempered Goddess of Love, won't take no for an answer.It's the murder, intrigue, and godly shenanigans of classic mythology tempered with a hefty dose of modern satire.Jason's ready and willing to die to fulfill his quest.
