Sam and Remi Fargo’s attempt to buy an old book turns into a violent encounter and sends them searching for a secret hidden in a centuries-old text. The trail points toward a legendary treasure connected to medieval history and a puzzle that has defeated searchers for generations. As the Fargos move from rare-book collections to historic sites, another party follows closely behind and proves willing to kill for the same prize.

This treasure-hunting adventure suits readers who enjoy rare books, historical puzzles, and a resourceful couple unraveling clues under pressure.
