A heretical legacy
A dangerous sacrifice

Worldwide controversy surrounds author Maureen Paschal as she promotes her new bestseller--the explosive account of her discovery of a gospel written in Jesus' own hand. But a scandalous headline about her lover, Berenger Sinclair, shatters Maureen's plans and sends her to Florence.

There, under the guidance of her new teacher, Destino, Maureen discovers the fascinating story of Lorenzo de' Medici - the godfather of the Renaissance and one of history's great Poet Princes. During his lifetime, Lorenzo worked carefully to create a body of work which would preserve a series of ancient secrets - secrets too powerful and dangerous to be committed to writing.

But Maureen's most explosive discovery affects the person closest to her, as she realises that her lover, Berenger, shares an extraordinary legacy with Lorenzo de' Medici. He must uncover the heretical secrets of the Medici family - and the truth behind the birth of the Renaissance - if he is to fulfil his own destiny. But these secrets were hidden for a reason, and there are those who would stop at nothing to prevent Maureen and Berenger and destroy the heresy once and for all.
