It wasn't the most hospitable invitation she'd ever received. Archaeologist Annja Creed is being rushed to Massachusetts, abducted by a famous environmental terrorist - a zealot willing to kill anyone who gets in his or the planet's way. He has taken the book dealer hostage in order to steal a rare and very valuable treatise called the Tome of Prossos. Annja is the key to retrieving the ancient manuscript hidden somewhere deep within the mansion.

Kissing my best friend was a stupid mistake. It earned me a few good hits to the face by his hulking boyfriend, Sebastian, and I can admit that I deserved that.

The novelty of the book lies in its reimagining of Kant's philosophy as a dynamic tool of inquiry rather than a fossilized dogma. The author argues that treating Kant's work as a sacred, immutable canon betrays its very essence. Kant's thought was, from the outset, critical—meant to probe the boundaries of reason and to craft methods of knowing, not to hand down definitive answers carved in philosophical stone. The book highlights the central paradox: by turning Kant's ideas into doctrine, one drains them of the very critical energy that Kant himself saw as the lifeblood of philosophy.
