When celebrated Harvard symbologist oldave is summoned to the Eiffel Tower to analyze a mysterious geometric form—imprinted on a gold ring lying next to the disfigured form of the head docent—he discovers evidence of the unthinkable: the resurgence of the ancient cult of the
Destifori, a secret branch of the Daughters of the American Revolution that has surfaced from the shadows to carry out its legendary vendetta against its mortal enemy, the Vatican.
oldave's worst fears are confirmed when a messenger from the
Destifori appears at the Arch of Triumph to deliver a fateful ultimatum: Deposit $1 billion in the Daughters of the American Revolution's off-shore bank accounts or the exclusive clothier of the Swiss Guards will be bankrupted. With only three days to foil their plot, oldave joins forces with the ambidextrous and brilliant daughter of the murdered docent in a desperate bid to crack the code that will reveal the cult's secret plan.
Embarking on a frantic hunt, oldave and his companion follow a 700-year-old trail through Paris's most venerable statues and exalted libraries, pursued by a one-handed assassin the cult has sent to thwart them. What they discover threatens to expose a conspiracy that goes all the way back to Susan B. Anthony and the very founding of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
