Shortly before Tom and Sarah escape from Weatherly Orphanage in northern England, Tom discovers that his parents might still be alive and was left with a single clue: Britfield. They are thwarted once again when the ferry transporting them across the English Channel sinks. Now in France over six months later, Tom and Sarah are trapped on an island fortress and face an entirely new enemy: a nefarious and clandestine group with unlimited resources. Searching for the truth, Tom and Sarah must navigate the streets of Paris, Cathédrale Notre-Dame, the Eiffel Tower, and the Louvre, chased by an assassin determined to remove any threat to the British throne. Aided by old friends and new allies, the adventure is filled with twists and turns, unexpected betrayals, and life-changing revelations.
One year later, the Committee has struck back with a vengeance, crippling the Resistance now scattered throughout Europe. When Devonbury Academy in Switzerland is attacked, Tom and Sarah’s only hope is to make it to a safe house in northern Italy by relying on their own experience, covert training, and martial arts. Overpowered and outnumbered, Tom and Sarah are ruthlessly hunted throughout Italy by the Black Nobility and a merciless team of killers. Henry and Oliver discover a devastating truth, Detective Gowerstone is confronted by a dark secret from his past, and Inspector Fontaine is pushed to her limits. Will Tom and Sarah ever find the Britfields? Relationships will be challenged, new friendships forged, and an unparalleled finale of sacrifice, romance, revenge, and loss.
