Publisher's Synopsis
PRINCE OF EUROPE is set in the near future where unscrupulous men use breakthroughs in science and technology as weapons to transform the world. An esoteric society as old as the pyramids lurks in the ruins of the fabled Cathar fortress, Montsegur. They steal an obscure mystical artifact known as Dagobert's Lance and lure billionaire Charles Evans into an ancient mystery that will transport him beyond the confines of this world and change our future. Bizzare events confront Evans and others: Eight identical redheads, a strange pinkish fog in the little town of Firthmoor, buildings that appear out of nowhere, all connected to the secretive Centre for Scientific Research. The enigmatic Scottish Prime Minister Brock Sinclair promises the people of the world an Era of Abundance, a paradise free from want. Unlike ordinary politicians, he can deliver. But are we willing to pay his price? PRINCE OF EUROPE recounts a struggle to control the world in the first days of technologies so new and powerful that they look like magic. Will the human race survive the transition, or will it be transformed into something completely alien?
