War blossomed around every corner of Europe at the beginning of the 1900s. It was also a time of Mystics and Mysticism. Alexander Drummond arrived in Russel, New Zealand, with his parents; from Dumfries in Scotland. Russel at that time was the Capital City; a raggle-taggle of a place filled with hopefuls, the lost, and the leftovers. In 1896 Alex was 8 years old and orphaned, his mother had died and his father was the victim of Blackbirding. In 1914 the Great War broke out. The war to end all wars. Alex's uncle, from Dumfries in Scotland, kept in communication. He was soon to join the War effort. He knew the Case must be protected. Alex enlisted in the Navy as a Seaman in New Zealand and soon moved up the ranks as an officer. It was during this time that he took possession of the Case. Johann Holzel was connected to the administrative side of the Holy See. He was also tied in with the Great Lodge. Holzel knew of the existence of the Case and the origins of its contents. The Roman Catholic Church wanted it back
Carlos Beltowers must get the Case at all costs. It didn't matter to him who he used or stepped on to get it. The Triads were involved and so was the Roman Catholic Church, but none of them counted on The Sons of the East to have the interest, influence, and finance, to be a player in this game of possession which had David Chen, The Drone, in the middle. David was in Manila to support his friend, Jack Leoni. Jack's trial was set. Bridgett was also in the Philippines. Carlos Beltowers had enticed her to work for him as a ploy to entrap David David was on the run. It became clear to the seekers that they needed the real Bracelet to control the Case. At every turn, his life was in danger. Then Bridgett was kidnapped. It seemed Carlos' son Michael had become so infatuated with her that he couldn't bear to lose her. The Sons of the East became major players in the sought-after Case. Life was of little value to them. They didn't care whether David lived or died; as long as they got the Case and the bracelet.

The thousand years explored in this book witnessed developments in the history of Ireland that resonate to this day. Interspersing narrative with detailed analysis of key themes, the first volume in The Cambridge History of Ireland presents the latest thinking on key aspects of the medieval Irish experience. The contributors are leading experts in their fields, and present their original interpretations in a fresh and accessible manner. New perspectives are offered on the politics, artistic culture, religious beliefs and practices, social organisation and economic activity that prevailed on the island in these centuries. At each turn the question is asked: to what extent were these developments unique to Ireland? The openness of Ireland to outside influences, and its capacity to influence the world beyond its shores, are recurring themes. Underpinning the book is a comparative, outward-looking approach that sees Ireland as an integral but exceptional component of medieval Christian Europe.
