” An underground labyrinth guards the most enigmatic secret of the Universe”
” The master key,” Philip II whispers on his deathbed, clinging to a fragment of parchment covered with mysterious inscriptions. The parchment hides a secret dating back to the beginning of time, and the fragment has been discovered by Raimundo Randa, a singular agent in the king’s fearsome network of spies. But it is only one of the twelve that make up the complete message. Who owns the other eleven? What enigma do these incomprehensible signs enclose? Randa will try to answer these questions in an exciting odyssey between Christians, Jews and Muslims.
{mosgoogle}Five centuries later, the disturbing scroll is once again at the center of world history. The one who now faces the mystery is a young cryptographer, David Calderón, an expert in languages and clues. The challenge overflows all that can be predicted, for it has to deal with an unprecedented code. And he will also have to challenge the powerful interests of those who oppose the master key finally turning in its lock and giving us its secret: the heritage of Babel, the language from which the Universe comes.
