A legendary weapon.

A symbol of great power said to make whoever holds it unstoppable in battle, the sword Excalibur has been coveted  across the ages. The blade of King Arthur has been thought lost for over a thousand years - but with a cryptic message to archaeologist Nina Wilde, this may be about to change.

A ruthless assassin.

Historian Bernd Rust believes he has identified the clues that lead to the location of Excalibur…..and that the sword itself is the key to harnessing an incredible source of energy. Nina is sceptical - until she and Rist are attacked by an elite team of mercenaries determined to steal his research.
