When visiting Switzerland to attend a college friend’s wedding, Dalton Crusoe is drawn into a dark secret involving corrupt Swiss bankers, who are descendants of the Knights Templar and financial enablers for Nazi Germany. A marker, the Grey Falcon at Alpine Cachette, leading to the Templar lair in the Swiss Alps is revealed in a hypnotic session from savant mathematician Stephan Lautens...a distant grandson of a Templar Grand Preceptor.
Dalton’s friend is killed by a car bomb two days before the wedding and learns a package awaits him in Basel. Fearing the damning nature of his investigations Geoff Martin protects his findings by sending a copy to Dalton ahead of its release to his superiors. Key members of Geoff’s staff begin disappearing or die in strange circumstances causing Dalton to pursue a search for Geoff’s killer.
Dalton operates as an international figure spearheading world use of EFA, a slow fusion technology discovery. Russian oilmen, fearing EFA will destroy their economy, provide a private Nazi hunter group damning lost documents on QSB’s Nazi involvement in exchange for targeting Dalton thus stopping the EFA project.
The Martin report provides proofs the QSB Bank Privee and its officers maintained a cloak of secrecy over their banking operations dating back to the thirteen-hundreds. Capitalized with hidden Templar treasure the five families who own QSB use the fortune to grow the bank and their personal wealth. They influence Swiss banking and foreign policy for hundreds of years. Garnering strength and power through their QSB bank eventually corrupts the five family bank owners to become war-profiteers while financially partnering with the Nazis. The corrupt alliance extends past the war to second generation Nazi’s who sequestered vast amounts of the stolen gold for their own enrichment. Successfully avoiding bank exposure to Swiss regulators and periodically eliminating Nazi hunters allows the bank to operate with immunity to investigative efforts for seventy years until Geoff Martin receives secret documentation detailing the alliance.
Lethal trouble ensues when Templar descendant Stephan, suspects his grandfather, QSB CEO Conradus Lautens, of corruption and pursues evidence of the Templar past and Nazi alliance. Dalton and his covert team must confront the Swiss bankers, save the grandson, reveal the report findings to the world and seek out Geoff’s killer. The trek finds Dalton locating the Grey Falcon at Alpine Cachette while he is under a kill order, hunted by QSB skilled assassins and a private Nazi hunter organization beholden to Russian oilmen.
