London Book Festival Honorable Mention Best Fiction

The world has returned to its regular rhythm after the near cataclysmic events that came from deep space.

Father Kinzee has been given a new job as an investigator of religious artifacts, a job he feels has no real purpose.

Simon, a reforming gang banger and the Father’s best friend, joins him for breakfast one morning when a stranger seeks them out and asks them to take possession of an object of great importance. Moments later, the stranger is abducted, thrusting the Father and Simon into a world of assassins and the ultra-rich.

The government and the FBI are only willing to give help through unofficial channels leaving them to enlist Simon’s former gang for protection since they are now targets for those searching for the object.

The pair experience greed and corruption at their worst as they try to unravel and survive an international manhunt taking them to the Svalbard Seed Vault also known as the Doomsday Vault, which houses all the seeds needed to replant the planet. But what else is secreted away in its secure bowels?
