Publisher's Synopsis
During World War II, an American paratrooper on a covert mission drops into eastern France to find mystery, romance, murder, espionage and becomes involved with the Prieur� de Sion, an ancient secret order that has been quietly influencing western society for centuries. And that is only the beginning. For over a thousand years, members of the Prieur� de Sion have been the targets of assassinations. Why? The tale weaves a thread that begins in the alpine meadows of the Jura mountains, and moves into mystical journeys of self-realization in the labyrinth and secret underground temple complex near Rennes le Chateau in southwestern France.
