Description
A mysterious chess set holds the key to transforming history. In 8th century AD, Ibn al'Arabi gifted Charlemagne with a powerful chess set, setting in motion a chain of events that would shape the course of human destiny. Centuries later, in modern-day New York City and 19th century France, two women are drawn into a world of intrigue and danger. As they navigate treacherous landscapes, they must scatter pieces of the Montglane Chess Service across the globe to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
