Book of Souls picks up the action a year after the
conclusion of Secret of the Seventh Son. Will
Piper’s life has been forever changed by the astonishing
secret he’s discovered hidden at the government’s
clandestine installation deep under the Nevada desert.
His uneasy retirement from the FBI is interrupted when a
long-missing book surfaces at an auction house in London. A
group of ex-Area 51 employees, who call themselves the 2027
Club, recruits Will to assist them in obtaining the book
and helping them solve a mystery that will affect the fate
of all mankind. As deadly government operatives try stop him, Will
discovers the ancient missing volume has had a profound
effect on history. Remarkably, a newly-found puzzle sonnet
by a young William Shakespeare seems to have been inspired
by the book.
As Will peels back the onion to solve a series of clues
hidden in the poem, he finds the book has influenced not
only Shakespeare but also the religious philosophy of John
Calvin, the father of predestination and the prophesies of
the seer, Nostradamus.
When the final clue yields the ultimate secret, Will is
forced to confront a truth which mankind may not be prepared
to hear.
