MEKANISMO Journal I: Keepers of The Bell - Paperback

by William E. Allerton (Author)

History through The Looking Glass.

A Fast-Moving Conspiracy Thriller, written as a Chronicle of events in real Time, MEKANISMO, Journal I, Keepers of The Bell, takes such an alternative view of Historical events that you will begin to wonder where the actual truth lies. Beginning in rural France in the 1930's, this generational saga ranges across a Europe preparing itself for War. Political leaders are searching for any advantage to help them survive. Prediction of future events would be the most significant advantage they could find. In pursuit of that they turn to Astrology, soothsayers and the study of human nature. Meanwhile, an Ancient Device is discovered that could change history for the owner, providing they can find two other vital items. The first is the right key. The second is a Female Adept who has been genetically bred from a line of female Adepts since 86BC, carrying a cellular message that enables them to interpret the device when it is eventually rediscovered. These women can be visibly identified by a genetic quirk passed through the mitochondrial line. They also inherit a disposition towards loneliness, isolation and tragedy. Pursued as avidly as they are, they have no escape except to find love, or die.

The journey continues in MEKANISMO Journal II, Argo Navis and MEKANISMO Journal III, Ophiucus Rising.
