In post-war Germany, two extraordinary children are destined to meet: Heinrich Weiss, born during a summer storm with a "Sacred Fire" burning within him according to his grandmother's prophecy, and Sophia Hoffman, whose birth is marked by her great-aunt's prediction that she possesses "the sight." Fate brings them together as children, only to separate them until a chance reunion in the Spanish mountain town of Lanjar n twenty-two years later. When Heinrich and Sophia recognize each other across a restaurant terrace, they discover their childhood connection was no coincidence. As they build a life together-Heinrich establishing an innovative technology company and Sophia pursuing her musical career-they face both profound joy and devastating loss. Their daughter Emilia inherits their exceptional gifts, developing into a classical guitar prodigy whose talents will eventually lead her beyond Germany's borders. "A Sacred Fire" weaves together technology, classical music, and mystical intuition into a sweeping family saga that spans decades of German history. This first installment in James P. Lewis's five-volume "A Thousand Years" series establishes the Weiss family legacy that will unfold across generations.
