Internationally acclaimed bestselling author Kenneth Johnson (The Man of Legends, V) weaves a metaphysical mystery-thriller of deceit stretching from present-day Manhattan back to mystical Dark Ages.

Matt Shaw, hard-working NYU med student, is astounded to receive a full endowment from respected 80-year-old historian Dr. John Zachery. At a celebratory champagne dinner in an elegant Manhattan restaurant, Zachery places an ancient talisman in Matt's hand and whispers a strange phrase. Matt has a startling, momentary flash of torch-lit, 6th century Stonehenge. After dinner a woozy Matt stumbles homeward through foggy Greenwich Village and is plagued by disturbing visions. Then falling asleep in his flat he experiences dreams that are even more alarming. When he awakens in an unfamiliar mansion bedroom Matt realizes that he's dealing with something far older and deadlier than he could have imagined: because the face Matt sees in the mirror is Zachery's. Sinister medieval alchemy has allowed Zachery to take over Matt's young body, his life, and his love, leaving Matt trapped inside an ever-tightening nightmare from which there seems no escape.
