The Greek gods are alive, well and residing in a rundown London townhouse. When they're not moonlighting in the human professions--Artemis as a dog-walker, Apollo as a television psychic, Aphrodite as a phone sex operator--they are feuding among themselves. Imagine Big Brother with superpowers. How else would one pass the long centuries of eternity?
Disturbingly, their power is not what it used to be, and even turning mortals into trees is sapping their vital reserves of strength. Soon, what begins as a minor squabble between roommates Aphrodite and Apollo escalates into an epic battle of wills. Two perplexed humans, Alice and Neil, who are caught in the crossfire, must fear not only for their own lives, but for the survival of mankind. Nothing less than a true act of heroism is needed--but can these two decidedly ordinary people replicate the feats of the mythical heroes and save the world?
