      Abbey of Ruac, rural A medieval script is discovered hidden behind an antique bookcase. Badly damaged, it is sent to Paris for restoration, and there literary historian Hugo Pineau begins to read the startling fourteenth-century text. Within its pages lies a fanciful tale of a painted cave and the secrets it contains - and a rudimentary map showing its position close to the abbey. Intrigued, Hugo enlists the help of archaeologist Luc Simard and the two men go exploring.When they discover a vast network of prehistoric caves, buried deep within the cliffs, they realise that they've stumbled across something extraordinary. And at the very core of the labyrinth lies the most astonishing chamber of all, just as the manuscript chronicled. Aware of the significance of their discovery, they set up camp with a team of experts, determined to bring their find to the world. But as they begin to unlock the ancient secrets the cavern holds, they find themselves at the centre of a dangerous game. One 'accidental' death leads to another.And it seems that someone will stop at nothing to protect the enigma of the tenth chamber ...

      Un tranquilo día de otoño la ciudad de Chester’s Mill queda inexplicable y repentinamente aislada del resto del mundo por un campo de fuerza invisible. Los aviones se estrellan y caen del cielo consumiéndose entre llamas, la gente corre sin rumbo por el pueblo vecino al verse separada de sus familias y los coches estallan al impactar contra el muro invisible. Nadie consigue comprender cuál es la naturaleza de la barrera, ni su procedencia, ni cómo ha llegado hasta allí, ni si algún día desaparecerá. Dale Barbara, un desilusionado veterano de la guerra del Golfo reconvertido en un mediocre cocinero; Julia Shumway, la directora del periódico local; y un grupo de skateboarders adolescentes lucharán para descubrir el misterio de la cúpula. Sin embargo, en el otro bando se encuentran el gran Jim Rennie, alcalde de Chester’s Mill, un hombre corrupto y sin escrúpulos dispuesto a todo para tomar las riendas del poder, y su hijo, que oculta un terrible secreto en una oscura despensa. Pero su adversario principal es la propia cúpula. Porque el tiempo no es infinito. El tiempo corre e irremediablemente se acaba...

      Imagine if you were able to change history. By altering one tiny thing you could start a chain of catastrophic events. Ethan is one of the Named, fated to stop this ever happening, although the forces of chaos have other ideas and Ethan is finding it more and more difficult to stay one step ahead. He is also a normal schoolboy, whose life is rapidly becoming far too confusing. So when Isabel arrives on the scene she is only going to make matters worse … or is she? This is history in the making - literally.
