For millennia, the warriors of the secret Order of the Brotherhood of the Shadow shed their blood, fighting an ancient mysterious evil called the Enemy of All That Exists. Across many eras, the warriors of the Brotherhood stood guard over the sacred commandments contained in the Holy Code—an unbreakable monolith that united the Order through a strict set of rules. The secret war, which lasted for centuries, has reached our days, and its finale is close. But what if, in order to save the world from evil, it will be necessary to commit another, even more terrible evil?
The main character of the book is Alex (the novel “Object-12”)—an undercover intelligence operative working under cover in Europe. While carrying out another mission, he gets drawn into a bloody confrontation between two powerful forces hunting a small blind girl. Unable to allow an innocent child to die, Alex enters the game without approval from his superiors—where the life of all humanity is at stake.
