#1 in the Bharat Series
A cardboard box is found on a shelf in a London library where a copy of the Mahabharata should have been. When the mystified librarian opens it, she screams and falls unconscious to the floor. An elite group that calls itself the Lashkar-e-Talatashar has scattered around the globe, the fate of its members curiously resembling that of Christ and his Apostles. Their agenda is Armageddon. In the labyrinthine recesses of the Vatican, a beautiful assassin swears she will eliminate all who do not believe in her twisted credo. In Tibet, Buddhist monks search for a reincarnation, while in strife-torn Kashmir, a tomb called Rozabal holds the key to an ancient riddle. Father Vincent Sinclair must piece together these seemingly disjointed histories, while being pursued by members of a clandestine society, which would rather wipe out all of creation than allow an ancient secret to be disclosed.
