The high lord of the immortal Darkyn has sent his most trusted warrior, Korvel, to retrieve a coveted scroll that's rumoured to contain maps to Templar treasures and the secrets to eternal life. Uniting with Korvel to recover the dangerous artefact is Simone Derien, the daughter of the scroll's guardian and a woman with many deadly secrets. As Korvel helps her track the scroll and elude a crazed assassin on their trail, Simone hides another terrifying secret: She has been ordered to kill Korvel as soon as they secure the treasure.
