Publisher's Synopsis
Fresh from a thrilling encounter in the mountains of Wales, Oxford student Rupert Pinter plans to settle into a quiet term studying linguistics. But his adventure is only just beginning, and when he joins his mentor, Geoffrey Randle, on a quest to uncover the truth behind the brutal murder of an Oxford professor, Pinter finds that he is in for more than he'd bargained. Thrust into a deadly race against time, and pitted against the charismatic mercenary, Bill Shakespeare, Pinter's journey will take him from the libraries of Oxford University to the casinos of the French Riviera, and from the skies of England to a labyrinth beneath the mysterious Hellfire Castle. As the shadowy disciples of the Tuatha De Danann move ever closer to their despicable goals, Rupert Pinter is about to discover that he's playing a dangerous game, where the stakes can mean the difference between life...and death...
