Omschrijving

History is a story told in shouts, but its secrets are kept in silence.

In the year 1227, as the shadow of Genghis Khan's death falls over the largest empire the world has ever known, a single, impossible burden is placed on the shoulders of Batu, a young scribe rendered mute by a childhood fever. With his final breath, the Khan entrusts him with a cryptic map—a celestial cipher that holds the location of a lost alchemical formula for a weapon capable of turning cities to ash and armies to dust. Bound by a sacred blood oath to protect the secret at all costs, Batu flees into the vast, unforgiving landscape of the Silk Road. He is the Silent Keeper, a ghost running from the thunder of his own collapsing world.

He is hunted by two of the deadliest players in the great game. General Subotai, the architect of the Khan's victories, is a man of terrifying genius who sees the secret weapon not as a threat, but as the tool he needs to seize control of the fracturing empire and impose his own brutal, absolute peace. From the opposite direction comes Lin, a brilliant and lethal spy from the Song Empire, a woman who will sacrifice anyone—and anything—to claim the prize for her own people.

Caught between the hammer and the anvil, Batu is forced into a desperate alliance with the enigmatic spy, a partnership forged in blood and suspicion. Their journey is a relentless chase through deserts, mountains, and the dark alleys of ancient cities, a three-way race for a secret that could rewrite history. As they peel back the layers of the Khan's Sin, Batu's oath is tested against a stark new reality. In a world of shifting loyalties and monstrous ambition, is the greatest price of loyalty to one's honor, one's life, or one's own soul?
