History remembers what it was allowed to remember.
Acre, 1272.
As Jerusalem falls, a dying Templar knight entrusts Prince Edward with a secret so devastating that it must be hidden from the world at all costs. An ancient Codex. A manuscript said to reveal the truth behind history's greatest mystery.
Before the knight dies, the Codex vanishes into England, where it remains hidden for more than seven centuries.
Until now.
When Noah and Freia uncover a forgotten chamber beneath Birkenhead Priory, they unknowingly awaken a war that has been fought in silence for nearly two thousand years. Across Europe, encrypted manuscripts surface. Ancient symbols reveal their meaning. Forgotten tombs are opened. And powerful men will kill to ensure the Codex is never found.
Because this is no ordinary relic. Its pages hold a truth capable of shaking the foundations of history, challenging centuries of belief, and changing the future of mankind forever.
Now two ancient orders have emerged from the shadows.
One will reveal the truth.
One will destroy it.
As the body count rises and the line between ally and enemy disappears, Noah and Freia must stay one step ahead of an invisible adversary determined to erase every trace of the Codex before its secret can be revealed.
Because some secrets don't change history.
They rewrite it.
Perfect for readers of Dan Brown, Steve Berry, James Rollins and Raymond Khoury.

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
