Free of the threat of Viktor Kaslow, William Barrow (a.k.a. Judas Iscariot) is tantalizingly close to finally having the life he has dreamed of with Beatrice and Alistair. But such optimism is short-lived. An ancient menace far worse than Kaslow has successfully tracked William and Roderick to Virginia after hunting the pair for nearly five hundred years.

Hoping to save it for last, until after the other twenty-nine coins are recovered, Viktor Kaslow’s recent designs for the coin thwart William’s plan.
