When elite retired soldier John Holliday adapts to his position as a professor at the West Point Academy, Israeli archaeologist Rafi Wanounou brings him terrible news: Peggy, his niece, has been kidnapped while photographing a tomb in Egypt. The kidnappers, the Brotherhood of the Temple of Isis, drag Holliday into a global conspiracy that links an Egyptian legend with the secrets of the Order of the Temple. Once discovered, those secrets cannot be survived.
