FROM THE BACK PAGE
In Medieval England the defence of the
realm in times of need rested on the shoulders of twelve men – a secret
brotherhood of knights, who answered only to the ruler of England. They were
called The White Hart.
As they are now…
In the hot late summer of 1666, a
strange document is delivered to the King of England. The writing, though easy
to read, refers to an obscure promise: a great fireworks display will soon take
place, culminating in a pure body of flame higher than St Paul’s.
A
week later and with the city burned to rubble, the hunt is on for its
mysterious sender.
Present day:
When flames are spotted inside a modern building located at the exact site of
Thomas Farriner’s bakery in Pudding Lane on the anniversary of the Great Fire,
few are prepared that this is just the first phase of the greatest terror
attack in living memory. But when information reaches the Prime Minister of a second
fire spreading in Edinburgh and a break-in at the Tower of London, it isn’t
long before chaos ensues.
For
White Hart agents Mike Hansen and Kit Masterson, the escalating attacks are
just the start of a bizarre sequence of events that threaten to send the
present and past on a collision course. A forgotten foe has finally resurfaced,
their ancient threat being carried out. Armed with both the latest in modern
technology and cryptic clues from the nation’s dark past, they have no choice but
to tackle the threat head on, while also frantically attempting to solve a
centuries’ old puzzle before it’s too late. If successful, they could yet save
both cities from certain destruction.
But
only by uncovering one of history’s best-kept secrets can they prevent the past
from repeating itself. . .
