A team of excavators restoring Notre Dame makes a stunning discovery beneath the floor of the cathedral…an unmarked sarcophagus.

 

When CIA operative Ridley Samaras and her new partner Henri are sent to investigate the strange finding, a vengeful creature is unleashed on the city.

 

Part of a clandestine CIA unit that tracks arcane relics around the world, the operatives discover a chilling secret stretching back nearly a thousand years: the Knights Templar were imprisoning malevolent Middle Eastern spirits called jinn. The jinn that escaped from this sarcophagus is on a mission to free its demonic masters from captivity…masters whose power would devastate the earth.

 

Ridley and Henri race after the jinn, from Portugal to Syria to England and Egypt, battling a radical remnant of the Templars seeking to exploit the supernatural chaos.

 

As the partners trace the creature’s path to unleash its final terror, they must prevent a global cataclysm at the most explosive place on earth…the Temple Mount.

Q:  Did they really find a sarcophagus buried under Notre Dame?

 

A:  Why, yes. Yes, they did. They opened it only shortly before I broke into the first chapter of Rage of the Jinn. In this case, reality was not nearly as interesting as fiction.

​

 

Q:  Is the Order of Raphael real? What about the Book of Enoch?

 

A:  To my knowledge, the Order of Raphael is entirely fictional.

 

The Book of Enoch is real. It’s an apocryphal book, which basically means it didn’t pass muster to become part of the verified canon of the Bible. At least the first part of it is an interesting read, and just an extravagant trove for the imagination. I’m agnostic on whether it fits in truth, and how it fits into the larger vision of my Christian faith, but it’s a terrific playground on which to construct a “world.”
