Key Locations: Poland, Nepal, Denmark, Germany.

Ghostly lights in the sky, and a mysterious outbreak of illnesses, bring Painter Crowe to a remote Buddhist monastery in the Himalayas, where the crazed monks descend into madness and savagery. Also caught up in the crisis is Dr. Lisa Cummings, an unsuspecting American doctor. When a seemingly superhuman assassin attempts to eradicate all evidence of the outbreak, Painter and Lisa are thrown together—and eventually captured and taken to a hidden fortress high in the mountains, where they discover a secret enclave descended from Nazi scientists who went into hiding after World War II. These scientists, who insist that they are no longer Nazis, have been working for generations on a top-secret mechanism known as the Bell (Die Glaube) which can influence the evolution of living organisms. By exposing fetuses to the strange energies of the Bell, the group has created the Knights of the Sun King (Ritter des Sonnekonig), a handful of super-humans with enhanced strength and abilities, but who also suffer from chronic degeneration. Accidental exposure to the same radiation damages Painter on a quantum level, so that he has only three days to live.

Elsewhere, on what first appears to be an unrelated assignment, Gray Pierce visits Copenhagen, where he clashes with a ruthless clique of assassins intent on capturing an antique Bible that once belonged to Charles Darwin. Gray eventually joins with Monk Kokkalis and a fifteen-year-old pickpocket named Fiona to track down the secret history of the Darwin Bible, which might contain a coded riddle from a previous owner, Dr. Hugo Hirzsfeld, a dead Jewish scientist with links to the Black Order, an occult society run by Heinrich Himmler, the infamous head of Hitler’s SS. Before his death in 1945, Hirzsfeld may have discovered the secret to controlling quantum evolution: a truth “too beautiful to let die and too monstrous to set free.” Gray and his companions follow the trail to Wewelsberg Castle in Germany, where they are betrayed by [REDACTED].

Escaping the Himalayan fortress after [REDACTED], Painter makes contact with Sigma once more. Comparing notes, the team discovers that the original Bell project split into two separate factions after the War, one in Nepal and one in South Africa, where the Waalenbergs, a famously rich and reclusive family of corrupt aristocrats, has been carrying on the work of the Black Order in order to create a master race of Aryan super-humans. They have also experimented on animals, spawning such monstrous mutations as [REDACTED]. Now they want the code hidden in the Darwin Bible in order to perfect the process.

With Painter deteriorating mentally and physically, and the Waalenbergs plotting a devastating attack on the world’s capitals, Sigma must launch an assault on the enemy’s massively fortified South African estate in order to find a cure for Painter—and stop modern-day Nazis from creating a new generation of unstoppable Sonnekonige.
