France 1428. Mariane's parents have been murdered by the occupying English army. She has nothing left but the ring, insignia and gauntlet bequeathed to her by her father. Taken in by her aunt and uncle, Mariane is drawn to her strange and awkward cousin, Jehanne. Jehanne believes that God is telling her to lead her country against the English. At first Mariane is doubtful, but her cousin soon persuades her to rally to the cause. And, before long, Jehanne has persuaded the people of France to follow her. In the highest circles of power, however, corruption has taken root. There are those who have a lot to gain from an English king on the throne of France. Among them is Sir Gaston, a French knight. He is also Mariane's uncle - the sole person who knows the true value of the ring that she inherited from her father. It is the key to unlimited wealth - and Lord Gaston wants it. Mariane is in mortal danger and now she must make a fight for herself and her future or fight for Joan of Arc and the future of France.

 The agenda is ambitious: eliminating the mass murder in the name of ethnic cleansing now raging all over Africa. The place is propitious: the town of Wannsee, Germany, where Hitler's inner circle once planned the extermination of six million Jews. The conference is historic. It is also a lie.Here the idealistic and the Machiavellian will draw together. The master terrorist will fight for light to prevail over darkness, while hoping, against everything he knows, that no one will die...and the master strategist will exploit the vulnerabilities of dreamers everywhere for his own covert ends.Here, linked more than either suspects by both of their violent family histories, two lovers will defy the fate that has consigned them as mortal enemies. One is Paul Walters, formerly a contract killer for the CIA, now a painter of dark, compelling brilliance, still expert in the arts of subterfuge and destruction. The other is Kate Dinneson, a rising star in the world of journalism whose unfolding personal drama will prove more explosive than any story she will ever write.Together, they will join forces against a vast conspiracy of duplicity and death even more treacherous than the deceptions each must continue to play against the other.For a web is tightening around the president of the United States. And an even greater threat is about to cast a terrifying global shadow - unless one lone man and one lone woman can extinguish it at its source.
