London, 1892. Private enquiry agents Cyrus Barker and Thomas Llewelyn have been tasked by the Prime Minister to deliver a satchel to the Vatican. The satchel contains a document desperately desired by the German government, an unnamed first-century gospel. With secret societies, government assassins, political groups, and shadowy figures of all sorts doing everything they can to acquire the satchel and its contents—attacks, murders, counterattacks, even massive street battles, and with a cold war brewing between England and Germany—this small task might be beyond even the prodigious talents of Cyrus Barker.
