Description
An historical novel based on true events set in Hong Kong and Macau. The story unfolds with the sudden reappearance of a mysterious Holy Grail charged with an irresistible magic power.
In Mongolia during the '20's, Stalin's henchmen razed lamaseries, burned libraries, and shot thousands of harmless lamas, smashing their precious artworks and sacred relics. They were seeking Genghis Khan's spiritual banner - the Khara Sulde. A steel trident with silver rings carrying the black mane of his warhorse, a relic that disappeared from the Shankh lamasery of Ovorkhangai Aimag, in Western Mongolia.
The Japanese learned of Stalin's failure to find the relic and unsuccessfully searched during their botched attempt to invade Mongolia prior to WWII.
Adolf Hitler consulted Swedish explorer, Sven Hedin, in an effort to locate it. Despite Hitler's success locating other ancient relics - such as Longinus' spear that pierced the heart of Jesus - he was unable to locate the Khara Sulde.
Why then, has the Khara Sulde surprisingly resurfaced today in contemporary Hong Kong, and right into the hands of a strange Italian mogul?
A very mysterious man known to the few who have met him as half godfather and half mystic?
