Thirteen years old at the time of the event, Jack and his family were forced to flee Carlsdale in the aftermath and head north to the larger city of Tuscaloosa. Mercifully, the menace from their former home left them in peace for nearly eight years.

William Barrow (aka Judas Iscariot) is faced with one of the most important decisions of his two-thousand-year stay on Earth.

Nick Caine and Ishi Cuyamel return to the United States with heavy hearts following a series of unexpected surprises in Scotland...surprises that have left them without Marie Da Vinci while placing the pair in the coerced employment of a secretive United States government agency.
