A coveted prize has surfaced in New York drawing restaurateur Cameron Kincaid into an 800-year-old war.

In 1208 the clandestine Rex Mundi began the Albigensian crusade in an effort to gain control of the Cathari treasure. For thirty-six years the Languedoc region south of France was washed in blood. By 1244 the last of the Cathari were eradicated when the Château de Montségur finally fell. Though the Rex Mundi searched everywhere, the Cathari treasure remained elusive.

Cameron, a suave former Legionnaire, vows to escort a young woman and her guardian to safety after thwarting assassins in the library of his eighty-first street restaurant. Cameron learns of the secret Cathari faith of the young woman and her guardian and of the Rex Mundi that believe the women are key to the long sought Cathari treasure.

Relentlessly pursued from the restaurant in New York, through the streets of Boston, Montreal, Toronto, and Quebec, Cameron tires of fleeing. The Rex Mundi will ultimately wipe out the Cathari to get the treasure unless Cameron takes the battle to them, a confrontation to seal his fate or ensure the survival of the two women and a faith he does not fully understand.
