The Codex_First Light

By Richard Phillips

For two thousand years, a secret has waited beneath the stones of England.

When a hidden parchment linked to King Edward I resurfaces in modern-day Birkenhead, two teenagers, bound by blood and fate, are drawn into a mystery that stretches back to the Crusades and beyond.

At the heart of it lies a forbidden Codex, said to contain truths powerful enough to shake the foundations of faith and nation alike. As ancient orders move in the shadows and powerful forces close ranks, the race begins to uncover a truth the world may not be ready to face.

Blending real historical events with gripping contemporary suspense, The Codex of the First Light is a fast-paced thriller that explores legacy, belief, and the dangerous power of hidden knowledge.
