name and room number of an autistic psychiatric patient. Of all the
possible avenues, the last road LAPD detective Nick Lambert wanted was
the long drive to Oakdene to interview the girl. It gets much worse when he discovers ?that as well as being autistic, the girl is also mute.
But when an off-hand comment from the nurse piques Nick’s attention,
he can’t help but follow the lead. What he finds will slowly turn his
entire world - his entire existence - upside down. Nick suddenly finds
himself at the heart of a centuries old struggle to find - and hide -
the kind of valuable information that mankind should never, ever be
allowed to possess.
It is only when Nick realises that he was a key player in the game
long before it started that he will discover the true importance of
those around him. Nick has inadvertently stumbled into the most
important human being who ever lived. One who will not only change the
world once, but will do it over and over again.
He will discover many things about the girl... What she has to hide is the most important thing of all.
