In Naples, 1750, three armed men invade the bed chamber of the Marquis de Montferrat, led by Raimundo di Sangro, the Prince of San Severo. He accuses the marquis of being an imposter and demands a secret he believes the marquis holds. The marquis escapes, leaving behind a burning palazzo and a vengeful prince determined to uncover the truth. Fast forward to Baghdad, 2003, where an army unit raids a fortified villa, uncovering a concealed lab filled with the remains of victims of horrific experiments. The scientist they seek, known only as the hakeem, escapes with vital information about his work. A puzzling clue, an Ouroboros—a snake eating its own tail—remains in one victim's cell, hinting at a deeper mystery. As the significance of this symbol unfolds, Mia Bishop, a geneticist, finds herself at the heart of a conspiracy with world-altering implications. The narrative spans from Baghdad to war-torn Beirut in 2006, as well as the lost villages of eastern Turkey and northern Iraq, interwoven with dramatic events in 18th-century Europe. International bestseller Raymond Khoury crafts a tale filled with rapid-fire suspense and rich historical detail, reminiscent of his previous works.
