Unearth the Secret That Could Shatter Nations… Before It Buries Her. The past is a carefully curated lie. And she just stumbled upon the proof.
Eleanor Reed, a brilliant young archivist, believes history is a puzzle to be solved from the safety of dusty libraries. When she accepts a lucrative job cataloging the papers of a reclusive British earl, she steps into the gilded world of Croftwood Manor-a world of decaying aristocracy and haunting portraits that seem to watch her every move.
But the manor’s secrets are anything than dormant. A locked journal. A faded photograph of three soldiers-two British, one American-smiling in the Italian sun weeks after he was declared missing. A series of coded letters whispering of a shadowy “transaction” and a name that echoes through the decades with menacing power: Conti.
As Ellie peels back the layers of a conspiracy buried since World War II, she uncovers the truth about Captain James Alden, an idealistic OSS agent who was murdered for discovering a terrifying pact between Allied intelligence and a powerful Italian dynasty. A pact known only as THE COVENANT.
Now, the past is reaching for her with a cold, modern grip. The Conti empire, a global powerhouse of immense wealth and influence, will not let its dark foundation be exposed. From the sun-drenched villas of Rome to the highest corridors of power in London, Ellie is hunted by those who believe some histories are better left buried-permanently.
She thought she was an archivist. She’s about to become the target.
