Professor David Shepherd is the keeper of knowledge that holds the world in a delicate balance. He knows who is in the Book of Names, an ancient text that contains the identities of each generation's 36 righteous souls - the Hidden Ones. Legend holds that if all 36 Hidden Ones are eliminated, the world will be destroyed.

As the Hidden Ones start dying, the world grows increasingly unstable - massive floods in New York, brutal terrorist attacks in Melbourne - and David finds himself battling against the secret religious sect the Gnoseos. His involvement turns personal when he discovers one of the names is that of his stepdaughter...

Now David races to decipher the traditions of the Kabbalah to save the remaining righteous souls, his daughter... and the world.
