But after Flamel's apprentice is found dead and a ransom note arrives threatening the life of Perenelle in exchange for the Philosopher's Stone, a magical object that can change lead into gold, Guest quickly discovers that there is nothing ordinary about this case. Soon, strange, antiquated symbols begin appearing throughout the city and he learns he must decipher their hidden code to unearth the truth of secrets long buried.
