Trust No One: A Thriller – A Treacherous Hunt Across Europe to Unlock the Secret to Immortality

A ritualistic murder of a British professor at the University of Exeter points to his own students, all enrolled in a postgraduate program on the history of witchcraft, folklore, and spiritualism. Evidence implicates Sharyn Karr, an American student, after the professor gives her a centuries-old encrypted book—the handwritten diary of an eighteenth-century mystic and occultist, the Comte de Saint-Germain—with a final warning: Trust no one. Sharyn is forced to work with Duncan Maxwell, a fellow postgraduate and sixteenth in line to the British Crown, who has expertise in decryption. Despite their conflicts, they need each other, especially after discovering the book's opening words: a claim to the secret of immortality. As dark forces pursue them, Sharyn and her friends flee across Europe—from the Tower of London to Parisian chateaus to a fortress in the Italian Alps—hunted by both law enforcement and a powerful cabal. Sharyn must uncover the true secret hidden in Saint-Germain's text, one that reaches deep into history and touches one of Western Civilization's greatest mysteries. What she discovers could topple empires and change humanity forever.
