David King would have liked to lead the life of a simple bookseller but he found that was not to be the day he saw the two dark gentlemen or, rather more importantly, the day they “saw” him. Now he is running for his life and, for better or worse, the archaeologist, Hanna has joined him as they unravel the mystery of three stone tablets and David’s own origins. Their escape will take them to far off lands and forbidden places but they will find there is no where they can escape the Ferrymen.
