A Christian thriller novel in the style of Dan Brown's 'Da Vinci Code' and Eco's 'Name of the Rose'. A thrilling hunt for esoteric mysterious artifacts of immeasureable value against a backdrop of the age of Terrorism and European and American politics. Carpocrates was an Alexandrian philosopher who lived in the first century (c.AD130-150) . He founded, along with his son Epiphanes, a notoriously licentious Christian Hellenistic sect related to Gnosticism. The Legacy? What is it and where is it? Through the centuries there have been rumours that the Carpocratians had 'something' of fabulous value which has been used as a guarantor of survival in times of intense persecution.
