The discovery of an ancient crown reveals secrets about old myths and answers questions Man never even thought to ask.
The body of an archaeologist is sent home in an urn. At the same time, a video he recorded ten years earlier goes viral on the Internet. The video shows him wearing an ancient crown-like object, and acting so odd, the public thinks the once-famous archaeologist had a mental breakdown during his last expedition.
The artifact, which is soon dubbed "halo," becomes the subject of a worldwide search by those who desire to understand and protect it, and by those who would abuse it.
While each harbor their own reasons, the archaeologist’s son, Nick; his old partner, Henry; Jane Carter of the SETI Institute; and NSA Special Agent Veronica 'Ronnie' Vagnetti, all become embroiled in a battle to learn the truth about both the video and the true nature of the halo.
What the small group finally uncovers is astonishing, but not all the ancient secrets of Man’s past are hidden within the object. Others secrets are revealed to only one of them.
Should the fiercely guarded secrets known only to a few elite organizations and The Vatican be revealed?
Will those individuals, whose lives have become intertwined with the halo, find what they are seeking?
