In a dangerous world, one special woman means the difference between life and death... Gabriel and his wife Chiara planned to spend a pleasant weekend in London - going to the gallery of St. James to see a newly discovered painting by Titian, then lunch in a quiet place. However, the bombings in Copenhagen and Paris ruined that beautiful autumn day. And while they were walking through Covent Garden, Gabriel noticed a man who was about to make a third attack. Before Gabriel could draw his weapon, he was knocked to the pavement and could only watch the horror. Haunted by his own mistake in trying to prevent the massacre of innocents, Gabriel returns to his secluded cottage on the cliffs of Cornwall, until he receives a call from Washington that draws him into the fight against a new form of global terrorism. At the center of the threat is a Yemeni priest of American origin who was gifted by Allah with the gift of seductive oratory. A gifted trickster, once on the CIA's payroll, he is the mastermind behind new terrorist attacks. Gabriel and his team hatched a plan to destroy the web of death from within. In order to succeed, Gabrijel has to resort to a turbulent past. A woman awaits him there - a reclusive heiress and art collector who can bridge the gap between Islam and the West. She is the daughter of an old enemy, a woman linked to Gabriel by a trace of blood...
