The blurb on the back of The Merovingian reads: “A warrior-rebel with a past was among the thousands of Jews who came to the Philippines in 1939 to seek safety from the atrocities of Nazi Germany. But an ancient evil hunted her and her companion and if it weren’t for sympathizers to the rebels’ cause, they might have been caught. “When that evil reached Philippine shores, she also found something in-country that, when triggered, could destroy the capital city forever. The rebel and her allies must craft a dangerous plan to defeat the enemy for if she succeeds, it would spell not only the destruction of a country, but the start of Armageddon.”
