When Sosi's brother Theron is injured during training for the Olympic Games, Sosi reluctantly uses his strange shape-changing ability and sheds his skin to take his form and his place. But Theron's injury was no accident. Soon other athletes are being targeted as well in a Persian plot to disrupt the Games. Only Sosi has the power to stop the terrorists from using the sacred Olympic flame to raise an ancient demon intent on killing his friends.

This story takes place during the games of the 113th Olympiad, which were held at Olympia in Ancient Greece. Many of the events are similar to those we have in our Olympic Games today, but in ancient times the Games were a religious festival based at Temple of Zeus with its fabulous statue of the god. The winner of the boys' sprint had the honour of carrying the Olympic torch to light the sacred fire on the third day of the festival, an honour Theron is determined will be his.
