Pulled from ancient silt by an old man and his dog. A medieval leather satchel. Containing a mysterious wreath. A circle of savage red-tipped thorns. Is it a genuine religious relic? Or a not uncommon artefact, found in many settings? For student Jarred Pierce - a budding expert in the field of antiquity - the suspicion grows that it may be the genuine article, despite the doubts and caution expressed by his friends and estranged parents. Even his girlfriend Georgie is less than convinced. But other people aren't. And when they become alerted to the discovery of the icon, they begin to make their moves. Important people. Respected people. The dangerous members of a sinister cabal, desperate to extend their ageing lives. Enemies posing in the guise of friends. When the legendary Rebel Angels themselves appear, reforming their shattered army from two millennia of banishment across the far flung reaches of the universe - maybe it is time to think again. Maybe the relic truly is the fabled Crown of Thorns. The army of fallen angels begins to assemble on the earth. Garbed in heavy armour, astride ferocious horses. Convinced that the crown holds the key to their liberty and the means to their dominion over all life. Only Jarred and Georgie have the means to stop them. If they can survive for long enough. If they can prevail in the greatest of all battles - fought across the plains of Heaven itself. Never has love and courage been more vital. Never has sacrifice been so hard.
