After the death of her mother, Matilda Black is sent to live with the Archivist. Staying with a man who cares for a very vast, very secretive collection, it is no wonder she cannot keep her wandering legs and twitching hands to herself.
Months into her temporary stay, Matilda's curious mind leads her to the archives, forbidden to all but the Archivist himself. When she discovers something truly ancient and remarkable, her suppressed, adventurous spirit bursts free whether she likes it or not.
Now, Matilda is exposed to a world she never thought imaginable and is bound to a position neither she nor the Archivist could have controlled.
Together, Matilda and the Archivist must learn to accept one another if they are to successfully find the truth- the sacred truth they are destined to bring to humankind. Even if it involves treacherous jungles, woolly mammoths, roaring vikings, and a persistent icy-eyed male addicted to death.
