Nick Armbruster was a retired Navy Seal, former mercenary soldier, and a down-on-his-luck private eye, wondering where his next meal would come from, when suddenly his luck took a turn for the better-or did it? When beautiful heiress, Lucretia Feinstein, blew into his office, gun in hand demanding his help to find her missing archaeologist father, Ira Feinstein, little did Nick know he was about to become embroiled in matters of world shattering consequence. Ira Feinstein had discovered ancient texts, lost books of Isaiah the Prophet, which told of artifacts of power-artifacts which would give anyone who held them the power to create heaven on earth or to destroy the world. But, Ira had been kidnapped by people who wanted the artifacts for nefarious purposes, and he was going to have to go through ritual initiations, into caves and dungeons, and maybe even destroy the world himself to save humanity. But, first, he had to save himself. And that might prove to be the most challenging job of all.
