The story revolves around the resurgence of Neanderthals, who have survived in hiding and are now seeking vengeance against humanity after being long forgotten by the world. The plot unfolds as Ray Rollins, the protagonist, grapples with the revelation of his own heritage and the implications it holds for his family and mankind. In the narrative, Ray Rollins encounters his cousin Bill Cuff, who reveals that they share Neanderthal ancestry, linked to a group known as the Old Companions. Cuff intends to reclaim the Earth for their kind and is determined to seize a space station being developed by Ray's brother, Howard. As the old vendettas rise to the surface, Ray is thrust into a conflict where he must navigate the dangers posed by Cuff and the Old Companions while attempting to save his pregnant wife, Nessa. The story culminates in a tense battle aboard the space station, where Ray must confront both the physical and existential threats posed by his ancestral lineage to save humanity and secure a future for his child.
