Hoard of Mhorrer: Book Two of the Secret War (Macmillan New Writing) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

It is 1822 and the world is on the brink. A fearless cohort of soldier-monks, led by Captain William Saxon, has been dispatched to Egypt on the most important mission in history. For thousands of years a great secret has been kept: a stockpile of appalling malevolence, which, if let loose, will plunge the world into eternal damnation: the Hoard of Mhorrer.
The soldiers must find and destroy this reservoir of evil before the daemonic agents of the wicked Count Ordrane locate and release it.
In a heart-stopping race against time, ranging from papal Rome to the desolate heart of Egypt's Sinai region, the soldiers must battle murderous militiamen and pitiless daemons, and finally, terrifyingly, the bloodthirsty guardians of the hoard.
If William and his men succeed, the clandestine war between Heaven and Hell will at last begin to favour the forces of light. But if they fail, and the agents of Hell win, then they will unleash an army of invincible daemons ... and humankind will come to know the true meaning of evil.
