Library of the dead

On the seventh day of the seventh month, the seventh son of a seventh son is born to ominous prophecy on the Isle of Wight. Centuries later, in 1947, Winston Churchill is called out of retirement to deal with an unprecedented archaeological discovery that threatens to derail postwar reconstruction. Soon afterwards, in Roswell, New Mexico, an alleged UFO sighting heralds the establishment of a secret military complex in Nevada-- a base that comes to be known as Area 51. In present-day New York City, Will Piper is reluctantly forced to interrupt his dissolute spiral into retirement when his superiors at the FBI assign him to the high profile Doomsday serial-murder case. The victims have nothing in common, except for one detail-- each of them received a postcard foretelling their date of death. But just when Piper finds a credible lead, he's taken off the case. Continuing the investigation on his own, he must outwit the ruthless team of covert operatives from Area 51 who are protecting the government's greatest secret.

  • "A murderer is on the loose on the streets of New York City: nicknamed the Doomsday Killer, he's claimed six victims in just two weeks, and the city is terrified. Even worse, the police are mystified: the victims have nothing in common, defying all profiling, and all that connects them is that each received a postcard in the mail before they died."@en
  • "A series of inexplicable deaths shook the city of New York in 2009. Accidental or criminal? The police do not understand the postcards received by the victims on the eve of their death. Mailed from Vegas, all indicate the exact dates of the deaths of the recipients. A real headache...."

  • "In New York City a murderer is on the loose: the Doomsday Killer has claimed six victims in two weeks. The police are mystified: the victims have nothing in common, all that connects them is that each had received a postcard, before they died, announcing their date of death. In desperation, the FBI assigns the case to maverick agent Will Piper, a man on a dissolute spiral to retirement. Battling his own demons, Will uncovers a shocking secret that has been closely guarded for centuries. This secret once lay buried in an underground library beneath a monastery and has now been unearthed. But the secret of the library is defended by people who would stop Will finding out the truth - at any cost."
