A young mother and her gifted son are trying to deal with the aftermath of Guernica's bombing when they are charged with the safekeeping of sacred scrolls unearthed in the destruction; a Catholic priest researching ancient religious texts and his young assistant have each received a message from a heavenly spirit to go seek the truth in the word of God; a German aristocrat threatened by the newly emerging fascist regime and his devil-may-care cousin search for a French connection in their family's heritage and when that search takes them to their uncle's chateau near Carcassonne they discover a mind-bending secret lurks within the ancient walls; an ex-patriot American artifacts dealer whose idea of an adventure has just been expanded by his newest patrons, two Greek priests at an ancient Egyptian monastery. These diverse souls become caught up in a divine web older than Christianity itself. They find themselves on the hunt for a common wisdom as the world teeters on the brink of war.
