Riassunto

During a sweat lodge ceremony in an Indian cave in the Rocky Mountains, a horrible massacre ensues. Bodies are found blistered and burned and purposefully positioned to form two shapes: a five-pointed star and a sickle-shaped moon.

One man recognizes the warning behind the gruesome murders: Painter Crowe, director of Sigma. He has seen these two symbols before, tattooed into the skull of a traitor. He knows the deaths were a personal threat-especially since of one of the dead is his beloved cousin. Seeking revenge as well as answers will send Crowe down a dark path that will lay bare secrets hidden since the founding of America.

From the frozen volcanic peaks of Iceland to the blistering deserts of the American Southwest, from the tombs of dead presidents to the gold vaults of Fort Knox, Crowe joins forces with Commander Grayson Pierce and an unlikely ally--a woman who may have had a hand in the murders--to penetrate the shadowy heart of a dark cabal that has been manipulating American history since the founding of the thirteen colonies.

But can Crowe discover the truth--one that could topple the government--before it destroys all he holds dear...including the woman he loves?
