A centuries old mystery. An accidental death. A conspiracy that may end in murder. Former British Special Air Service officer Ben Hope is running for his life. Enlisted by Leigh Llewellyn the beautiful, world famous opera star and Ben’s first love to investigate her brother, Oliver s, mysterious death, Ben finds himself caught up in a puzzle dating back to the 1700s. At the time of his death, Oliver was working on a new book about Mozart. Though the official report states that Oliver died in a tragic accident, the facts don t add up. But as Ben and Leigh dig deeper, they find that Oliver s research reveals that Mozart, a notable Freemason, may have been killed by a shadowy and powerful splinter group of the organization. The only proof lies in a missing letter, believed to have been written by Mozart himself. When Leigh and Ben receive a video documenting a ritual sacrifice performed by hooded men, they realize that the sect is still in existence today and will stop at nothing to keep its secrets. From the dreaming spires of Oxford and Venice s labyrinthine canals to the majes tic architecture of Vienna, Ben and Leigh must race across Europe to uncover the truth behind The Mozart Conspiracy before they become its next victims.
