September 2009. A mysterious package is delivered to Guido de Mola from his recently deceased grandfather, whom he barely knew. Inside, he finds a letter and two manuscripts, one modern and one very ancient, appearing to be of Renaissance origin. As he delves into the texts, he discovers that his family has for centuries been the guardian of an extraordinary and terrible secret concerning the philosopher Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, his esoteric theses, and the origins of the three great monotheistic faiths. Now, Guido must take up the mantle of his ancestors and become the last guardian of Pico's mystery, an enigma linked to the death of the Count of Mirandola, the Council of Ephesus, and the persecution of thousands of women accused of witchcraft. A secret that, if revealed, could challenge the world as we have known it for two thousand years, since Paul of Tarsus helped the Christian doctrine become the major religion of the West.
