Publisher's Synopsis
Before computer expert Cat Velis can leave for her new job in Algeria, a mysterious fortune-teller warns her of danger, and an antique dealer asks her to search for the pieces to a valuable chess set that has been missing for years. Created in the south of France in 1790, the chess set is rumored to contain the secrets behind alchemy, freemasonry, and cosmic forces. But long ago two convent girls hid the valuable chess pieces all over the world because the game played with all of the pieces is dangerously powerful.
