The Tartarus Conspiracy (The VanderBilt Trilogy #1)

Seven days. Three continents. One ancient sentence whose end date was written two thousand years ago.

Investigative journalist Amanda VanderBilt receives a single phone call. She has seven days before something catastrophic is set in motion — something her grandfather died trying to prevent, and her father was destroyed trying to expose.

What she uncovers is not a modern conspiracy. It is the end of an ancient one.

Hidden in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Encoded in the Book of Enoch. The text the early Church used as scripture for four centuries, then quietly removed from the canon: the account of 200 angels — the Watchers — who descended to earth, fathered the Nephilim, and were imprisoned in Tartarus for seventy generations. A sentence with a calculable end date.

That date is now.

An ancient order called the Tagma Lumis has been protecting this secret for millennia. A second faction — embedded inside the highest levels of government and intelligence — intends to weaponise what the Tagma Lumis has spent millennia containing.

THE TARTARUS CONSPIRACY spans Washington D.C., Isfahan Iran, and Jaunpur India across seven relentless days. Three protagonists — a journalist, a baker, and a soldier — each holding one piece of a puzzle none of them fully understands, converging on a truth that will rewrite everything humanity thinks it knows about its own origins.

This is a global conspiracy thriller built on real ancient texts. The Watchers. The Nephilim. The 70-generation sentence of Tartarus. The imprisoned beings whose release Revelation 9 describes in precise operational detail.

The mythology is not invented. The countdown is not a metaphor.
