Keď sa mladá Medúza, známa svojou nesmiernou krásou, stane kňažkou v chráme bohyne Atény, ešte netuší, aká vrtkavá je priazeň bohov. Zasväcuje svoj život pomoci iným, no keď sa sama stane obeťou božských hier, nikto jej nepomôže. Ani bohyňa nevypočuje jej prosby o pomoc namiesto toho kruto potrestá ju aj jej nevinné sestry. Stávajú sa z nich obávané Gorgóny. O tisíce rokov neskôr, keď svet už zabudol na ich mená a ľudský pôvod, vydáva sa hrdina Perseus na cestu. Nie preto, aby získal slávu, ale preto, aby zachránil svoju matku z rúk tyrana. Sprevádza ho priazeň bohov, no zdá sa, že jeho stret s Medúzou je nevyhnutný. Dokáže sa vymaniť zo zástupu tých, ktorí zlyhali, alebo sa zaradí k stovkám kamenných sôch, ktoré zdobia ostrov Gorgón.

Kéž by stejně hladce plynul i její milostný život. Vztah s Benem je značně rozkolísaný a na scénu se znovu vrací Giles. Holly každopádně čekají změny a nebudou se týkat jen výměny plenek…
