With Woden's spear, Vortimer believes God has chosen him to lead an army south to banish the Jutes once and for all from Britain's shores. In a desperate fight for survival, Octa and the Jutish warlords, Hengist and Horsa, are trapped on Thanet, their island home, as Prince Vortimer's army surrounds them.

His abiding passion is the elusive hunt for the philosopher’s stone and thus immortality. The Catholic Church fears he has pushed too far – into the forbidden realm of heresy – while the greatest powers in Christendom are concerned about the imperial line of succession.

A prophecy awakens. A weapon resurfaces. And Jonathan Rose is the key to both. Ancient secrets, modern warfare, unstoppable tension. A prophecy older than the Templars. A weapon powerful enough to reshape the world. And one man caught in the crossfire. After uncovering the truth behind his sister’s murder, Father Jonathan Rose is drawn deeper into the hidden war the Templars have fought for centuries. When brutal attacks strike from Panama City to Romania, all signs point to one terrifying conclusion: the prophecy is unfolding.
