Genesis snaps, leaving him unable to find the line between fantasy and reality. Josef locks down the Black Cat compound, preventing Genesis from escaping to the outside world... but he and Mona are trapped inside the compound with a hallucinating, violent assassin.Their only available ally is Ares, the newest of the Black Cats.

A taut thriller full of relentless action and images dredged from the darkest of nightmares, "Ares: The Gates of Hell" deals with life and death, the rights we claim to both, and the value of human life.
