Synopsis

In the heart of the Eternal City secrets have a price.
A price to keep, and a price to finally reveal. . .

Ancient artifacts which could reveal the secret of life everlasting have been uncovered after lying hidden for an eternity, but after finally being recovered these priceless items have been taken at gunpoint by a shadowy organisation determined to preserve the status quo.

Has this mysterious organisation, which seems to have its roots intertwined with those of the Vatican, misjudged the group of adventurers they stole the artifacts from.

Will their warning to leave this particular secret alone, backfire and turn the hunters into the hunted? And will the cost of keeping this one secret end up costing the shadowy religious order the secret of its own existence!

À propos de l'auteur

Peter Knyte was born and grew up in North Staffordshire, England, where more by chance than design he first stumbled across the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Arthur Ransome of Swallows & Amazons fame, David's Gemmell and Eddings through their Legend and Belgariad series, and met Jonathan Livingstone Seagull through the eponymously named title by Richard Bach. North Staffordshire and the Staffordshire Moorlands are also where Peter developed his love of walking and the countryside. After leaving Staffordshire, Peter moved to Middlesbrough, Birmingham, London and Leeds during which time he grew to love Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics, Asimov's Foundation series, and Rider Haggards tales of She Who Must be Obeyed and King Solomon's Mines. Peter still lives in Leeds, West Yorkshire, where he continues to enjoy walking and the countryside, as well as gardening, motorcycling, rock climbing, snowboarding and cooking.
