Beskrivelse

Renowned fact checker Peter Hillyer is found dead at the foot of Cleopatra's Needle, the Egyptian obelisk in New York City's Central Park. He's wearing late 19th century clothing, carrying 19th century French francs. In his pocket is a receipt from a renowned Paris restaurant circa 1889 and a ticket dated 1889 from The Louvre. No one knows why. Next to his body is an ornate piece of jewelry called the Brimstone, which has a disturbing history. But the case is closed. Seven years pass. Peter's son Dalton, also a fact checker, gets a phone call from a woman, named Juliet, who has information about his father. She tells him about her sister, Eliza, who disappeared seven years ago -- on the same day Dalton's father's body was found. She also has an outlandish theory: Your father found a way to go back in time to Paris and he took my sister with him. He came back and my sister didn't. I want to know why. So begins The Eiffel Tower Prophecy. Dalton and Juliet join forces with another ally, Proctor Newley, curator of The Morgan Museum in Manhattan, and by using the Brimstone, find a way to go back in time to Paris, 1889. Also, in pursuit of the Brimstone is Luger Pabst, a grisly mercenary with orders to find it at any cost. A woman, known as the Duchess, employs him. If he returns it, he'll receive a reward of 5 million Euros. He too finds a way to time travel to the City of Light. But once in Paris, 1889, Dalton, Juliet and Proctor can't get back - until they find an ally in the person of Gustave Eiffel, the man who built The Eiffel Tower.
