    About this ebook

    William Shakespeare once wrote “there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy” and that as they say, was a gross understatement. There are forces at play in this existence that are far beyond the comprehension of most and at this point in time humanity stands lurches towards the edge of a precipice, threatening to plunge into eternal darkness and oblivion with an extinction level event looming large. There are however, some things in existence that are more frightening than oblivion and death itself.

    Sinister plans have been set in motion that could ultimately doom mankind. While some seek to ensnare the world’s most popular female singing idol in order to unleash apocalyptic evil, others take the daughter of a potential US Presidential candidate hostage to exert the influence of Jihad over the nomination process. However, it may be that the fate of the world has always been tied inexorably to that of a certain royal family lost many years ago.

    In the end could the intervention of just one unique, savage individual, both constrained and driven by a chivalrous nature, challenge and avert the dark fate of two beautiful young girls, a martyred family and thereby the world? We shall just have to wait and see...
