A castle in ruins. A Viking's last secret. A choice that echoes through a thousand years.
Baron Tim de St. Clere is days from losing everything when a retired U.S. Air Force officer arrives with a mysterious heirloom, a riddle pointing to a lost treasure hidden since the age of Charlemagne. It may be Tim's last chance to save his crumbling ancestral home.
But they are not the only seekers. A ruthless political operative will kill to claim the gold and fuel his radical ascent to power. Tim races against this growing threat, guided by a perceptive archivist whose clarity and compassion help him navigate both history and his own fractured past. Together they begin to uncover fragments of a much older story: that of Bera Haraldsdatter, a Viking shieldmaiden who, in 882 A.D., risked everything to rescue two captive children from the wreckage of conquest.
Two timelines converge in a sweeping historical thriller. To unravel the mystery, Tim needs to decipher scattered clues left across centuries. As the stakes rise and the past presses urgently against the present, Tim must face an agonizing choice: use the treasure to save himself, or keep it hidden to stop a new era of greed and violence.
The Plague of God is Book One in the Sword Shatterers trilogy: a fast-paced and deeply researched hunt after a treasure powerful enough to reshape the present. Perfect for fans of Dan Brown, Steve Berry, and Ken Follett.
