‘In order to be punished, there must first be a transgression. I am innocent, but damned. Cursed in the most callous and inhuman way. But the blood of the guilty will yet wash over my hands. I will have revenge, and it will be merciless and unforgiving.’

The mysterious murder of a famous academic in the backstreets of Los Angeles leads to a wild ride through a dark quest that has lasted nearly 4,000 years and which will lead to the attempted fusing of the modern world to Ancient Egypt in 1799BC.

An enigmatic, powerfully beautiful, and fantastically rich woman, a bookish academic and his feisty friend, a brilliant but disturbing particle physicist, an ancient usurper and the arrogant god Anubis all combine to tell a story that threatens to change everything we know about the world around us.

The biggest particle accelerator in the world, a pyramid at the heart of LA, and a private army speaking Ancient Egyptian. There is a world within our world, and the time has come for it to step out and take control.
