The world's first murder was not a crime of passion. It was a declaration of war.

Six thousand years later, two young men collide at Princeton: Sebastian—brilliant, magnetic, raised from obscurity for a destiny he cannot name—and Adam, a preacher's son with an uncanny gift for showing people the best versions of themselves while running hard from the faith of his childhood. Their friendship feels like providence. It is—just not the kind either of them imagines.

For decades they believe they are building the same future—healing nations, feeding the hungry, inspiring a fractured world. But as economies collapse, wars ignite, and ancient prophecies begin keeping their appointments with terrifying precision, the truth surfaces: the two friends have been traveling in opposite directions all along. One toward a throne prepared for him before he was born. The other away from everything he was raised to believe—and straight back into its arms.

The murder at the dawn of time was not the end of a story. It was merely a rehearsal for evil's greatest attempt to finally overthrow good.
