As the Smithsonians president examines a newly discovered account of Abraham Lincolns assassination an intruder steals in kills him and disappears into the night with the document.

Blackstone finds himself uncovering the Mystic Freemasons most guarded secret. He reluctantly turns to his uncle a Bible-quoting Anglican priest and occult-religions expert. Enemies like a sorcery-obsessed billionaire English lord a powerful U.S. Senator and a ruthless prosecutor force Blackstone to employ all his cunning. In the process he is compelled to choose between spiritual counterfeit and Gospel truth guilt and forgiveness...destruction and a new beginning.
