#1 Bestseller in Canada, Germany, Italy and Australia.
Award-winning author Marcos Chicot is back with a mind-blowing thriller that blends intelligence, sex and manipulation.
Irina, Daniel, and Elena all work on cutting-edge projects that explore the brain’s limits and the possibilities of increasing its potential. When they meet through Mensa—the world’s premier high-IQ society—they discover that nothing is as it seems, and that they are the key pawns in a war that began twenty-five hundred years ago.
The protagonists try to discover the identity of their enemy before he does away with them all, but they are unprepared for the answers they find.
