There might be truth in the adage that there is no honor amongst thieves, but scholars and academics are supposed to behave honorably at all times. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Decades ago, a young researcher made a discovery that could have propelled him to the top of the world of British archaeology. In Wales he located a monument that came to be known as the Gawain Stone-the burial place of the legendary Sir Gawain of Arthurian literature. Unfortunately, his monograph was ridiculed by the president of the International Archaeological Society, which effectively squelched his career and relegated him to an insignificant academic career. But when that same society president stole his work and planned on issuing a paper under his name, he knew that he would seek vengeance upon the man who ruined him. A series of murders follows which are investigated by Deputy Chief Mag Goldman of the NYPD who calls upon his friend Professor Bradley Davison of Queens College to assist him because the murders have a Medieval historical connection. Pursuit of the killer brings Brad and Mag to Great Britain where with the assistance of Scotland Yard and the Welsh police, the chase for the killer is on. Once again, Brad Davison finds himself in the middle of serial killings which shock the academic world to its core.
