The Keepers of the Library
Summary
The Isle of Wight, 1775: On a stormy January night, an American traveller makes an astonishing discovery on the site of a long-abandoned monastery. Locals believe the site is cursed, but Benjamin Franklin is too curious about the apocryphal Library of Vectis to turn away.... Florida, 2026: Will Piper, former FBI agent, is retired and living a life of leisure, his thoughts far from the notorious Doomsday Killer case that vaulted him into minor celebrity status 15 years earlier. But according to what that investigation uncovered at a secret government site in Nevada, the world will change irrevocably on February 9, 2027. Is it the End of Days? No one knows what the Horizon, as it’s been called, will bring, and much of the world is suspended between preapocalyptic hedonism and despair. When a new Doomsday Killer emerges - inexplicably targeting only Chinese people - and Will’s son, Phillip, disappears, he is instantly drawn back into the case. The breathless, high-stakes adventure that Will is pulled into spans centuries and continents, and may at last reveal what the Library cannot about the future of humankind - if there is to be one....

Book of Souls
Summary
The Library: Only a handful know it exists... It holds the world's most astonishing - and terrifying - information... But the one book that is the key to the greatest secret of all time...is missing. Former FBI Special Agent Will Piper solved - and survived - the "Doomsday Killer" case...and his reward was a forced early retirement. But the shattering truths he learned about the government's most covert operations won't let him rest - and now he's on the trail of a mysterious volume that's been lost for six centuries. This is the book that inspired Shakespeare and the prophecies of Nostradamus, and once Will gets his hands on it, his life will be worth nothing - his death sentence a top priority handed down from the very highest levels of power. Because there are some truths too dangerous for anyone to know - those that concern the future, world domination...and the end of everything.
