Overview: A forbidden Kushite tomb. A journal that bleeds fresh ink. And a London thief the ancient world has been waiting for.
Six days after an unauthorised dig breaks into a chamber under the steep pyramids of northern Sudan, its finds are under glass in a Manhattan tower: the scorched confession of a high priestess of Kush, and a sliver of obsidian that pulses, without fail, every thirty-seven seconds.
Christian Usher, the man who runs the antiquities giant ChronoRelic, tells his board that history is written by the victors. He intends to write the next chapter himself.
Leila Noor al-Din is a professional thief with a loyal crew, a hidden vault and a talent for relieving collectors of things they should never have owned.
Then a triangle with a missing apex begins to form on her bathroom mirror, around a word she has never learned to read and understands anyway.
Daughter.
Her alarms pick up a pulse no one can explain. Her blood keeps time with it. And within hours, ChronoRelic has found her.
Twenty-six centuries ago, the guardians of a Kushite network of gates destroyed it – and their own faith with it – so that whatever waited on the other side could never cross. Usher is putting the network back together. Every gate he uncovers answers to one family line.
Leila’s.
