Bastet was once a powerful immortal in ancient Egypt known as an Original. She and the other two Originals, Sekhmet and Sun, were able to shapeshift at will into any wild feline.When Sekhmet became a murderous threat to the world, the Originals were bound by a spell to suppress their powers, imprisoning Bastet into mortal form. But that punishment wasn't enough for the Ancients, the shapeshifting canine immortals. They would rather see Sekhmet dead, even if that means finding and killing all three Originals to do so.Now, stuck as a mortal human in North America, Bastet takes a job at a local psychic shop, where she plans to use her gift of sight to find the human prophesied to free her. When that human turns out to be a twelve year old child, descendant of the Ancient canines, Bastet must befriend and protect those she once hated for so long. Facing fires, attacks, and her own heart, Bastet must fight to break the spell and obtain her true form.
