La profecía se cumple. El fin del mundo se acerca...

Dos muertes en lugares opuestos de Estados Unidos. Una cadena de asesinatos en diversos rincones del mundo. Ambos hechos no parecen tener relación entre ellos, pero el instinto de Will Monroe, un joven periodista de The New York Times, le indica lo contrario. En efecto, sus indagaciones le llevan a descubrir que las víctimas tenían algo en comú cada una de ellas había llevado a cabo un acto anónimo de excepcional bondad.

La investigación de este extraño caso, en busca de una gran noticia, no tarda en tener dramáticas consecuencias para su mujer es secuestrada y a él le amenazan para que abandone su investigación. Las pistas le llevan al corazón de la comunidad judía ultraortodoxa de Nueva York. Will se enfrenta allí a una secta de fanáticos religiosos y tendrá que resolver enigmas, interpretar pasajes de la Biblia y antiguas profecías hasta descubrir el secreto del cual dependen la vida de su mujer y el destino de la humanidad.

Una desesperada carrera contrarreloj en cuya meta se encuentra la liberación... o la extinción del género humano.
