London: the body of a murdered man is discovered in the city's underworld. The scientific community is stunned. It is a Neanderthal, a human race extinct for nearly 40,000 years! Where does he come from? What is this prodigy? Continental Europe: thousands of men and women disappear mysteriously, wiped off the face of the Earth. Some are found dead or half-mad, with a solar cross tattooed on their bellies. Is there a link to the massacre of the Cathars by the Inquisition in the 13th century? As Ilis, Franklin, and their companions have vanished in the Turkish desert, the quest initiated by Malhorne continues, led simultaneously by the Prometheus Foundation, the European police, and emissaries of the Vatican. And one word, one myth, an extraordinary reality, keeps coming back: the Aratta. In these places where all possibilities mingle and all dangers lurk, Ilis will approach the truth—religions, beliefs, legends—and touch the oldest secrets of humanity.
