When journalist Jake Wolsey stumbles upon a declassified file
showing Winston Churchill's interest in the ancient Etruscan
civilisation his curiosity brings peril in its wake. He soon
attracts the unlikely attention of alluring archaeologist Florence
Chung - and that of MI6. As the two are pursued across Europe and
Africa in search of the Etruscans' sacred text, danger closes in
and more questions than answers arise. Are there powers in the sky
modern science has yet to understand? Could the ancients predict
the future? And what really explains the rise of Rome, that of Nazi
Germany, the ebb and flow of history itself? In a thrilling race
against time and enemies known and unknown, Wolsey fears the very
survival of the West may depend on his ability to stay one step
ahead of his adversaries.
