Publisher's summary

Since the dawn of civilization, a hidden hand has gripped mankind.

Operating in darkness with limitless wealth and power, this ancient Shadow Caste has controlled every major event in human history - mass migrations, revolutions, plagues, even two world wars.

But now these ancient “caretakers” want to change the global experiment. Civilization is too successful, they believe, and our overpopulation threatens the existence of all life on earth.

Their solution? To cull humanity’s ever-growing herd.

They’ve tried it before - slashing our numbers with wars and pandemics, even propping up murderous dictators to gauge the results - but the new scale of death they desire far exceeds even their unlimited resources.

What this cult seeks is supernatural intervention. And they think they may have found it in a collection of ancient stones, hidden by time and faded from memory, that together can ignite a global cataclysm to kill billions in moments.

Luckily, former secret agent turned adventurer Sean Wyatt has no intention of letting this secret global cabal commit genocide. Armed to the teeth and racing across the world to stop this disaster, Wyatt and his crew will fight to the death so that, finally, humanity can live free.

From the first chapter, USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey grabs you and never lets go. This latest novel in the fan-favorite Sean Wyatt series will keep you guessing until the end and leave you wondering: Is this just fiction? Or could we actually face a similar dark future?

Good story

I don’t doubt that Stephanie is good with voices, but I prefer the less chaotic and more imaginative one voice format

Exciting read

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The thrills start right at the beginning all the way to the end. The plot is sort of a culmination of the adventures of the IAA team’s experiences. Great book.

Voices were incredibly annoying

I couldn't wait for this book to end. I could barely listen to it. The voices were absolutely annoying and overdone. Didn't care much for the story. Doubt I will listen to another of his books.

Save your credit

I could only last a few chapters , the narration was sooo awful. The male voice was OK, but the female, what were they thinking? Overly high pitched and screechy, couldn't wait to get to a new chapter, but it was the same. Horrible narration, ruined the book.

Reading like a child

Story line could be better but it’s read like your reading to a child. Not worth the listen.
