The Knowledge of Good & Evil

Ian Baringer may have stumbled upon the greatest discovery of all time.
Or possibly, the greatest curse . . .
As a child, Ian lost his parents in a horrendous accident, seeing them give their lives to save his. He never fully recovered, suppressing deep pangs of guilt, clinging to religion’s promise that someday he’d see his parents again.
But now years later his demons have resurfaced. Despite the help of Angela Weber, the brilliant psychologist who loves him, he’s in the grips of an obsession. He no longer trusts in promises of an afterlife, he must know for certain that the soul survives death. And incredibly, he may have proof. A risky means to steal across death’s threshold and, if all goes as planned, to return with Knowledge of a Great Beyond. Knowledge that can be verified by anyone willing to follow his footsteps.
The implications are staggering. Mankind would at last have confirmation of a hereafter. Perhaps of God, Himself. A Knowledge to halt wars in their tracks. To end forever the ancient animosities between Faiths.
Or perhaps, a Knowledge to doom us all.
There are some who believe living man is not meant to know what lies beyond. A brotherhood sworn to protect death’s secrets at all costs. It will pursue Ian and Angela to the ends of the earth to stop them. And should Ian and Angela survive, they’ll have to defy the gates of heaven and hell to bring back a Knowledge hidden from the world since the dawn of creation.
