What could happen if you changed just one day in history? What could you accomplish if you had access to all the virtue and valor of the greatest heroes of all time? Those are the questions that are answered in this historically accurate fictional story of six "regular guy" cousins. After the death of their grandfather, the six cousins are summoned to a meeting at the family vacation home by their uncle who tells them that they have been chosen to complete four incredible assignments. Uncle Rob, the Prophet, reveals to them the secret history of their family and the true nature of their grandfather and the important position he held as Meglio di Buono of the International Guardians of the Swords of Valor. They are sent by the Prophet back to various turning points in history to obtain the four missing Swords of Valor which have been stolen by the evil Apostles of Azazel. During their assignments they will need to rely on the swords, their courage and each other if they are to survive and successfully complete the assignments. They will encounter some of the most influential heroes of history and be changed forever by their influence while discovering the truth about themselves. This is a tale of valor, virtue, family honor, faith and the power of a humble spirit in a world dominated by pride and the love of power. There is no doubt that you too will be changed forever after reading it. The cousins go back to 4 historical time periods, WW2, Joan of Arc, time of Christ, and the Spartan/Persian battle at Thermopylae. There is a Quantum Computer in the story which generates a holographic image of their Grandfather which helps them work through all the historical details and helps them choose the dates and times to return to. They must go back in time to recover 4 historical swords of great Virtue and power. These 4 swords have been stolen by the Apostles of Azazel who are in possession of the 10 Swords of Terror. If they destroy the 4 Swords of Valor they currently have, they will weaken the source of Virtue and Valor in the world and society will begin to destroy itself from within. They must go back in time to the point when the swords were at their height of power and get the owners of the swords to give them to them willingly. In their travels they encounter Princess Elizabeth Windsor before she became queen, Joan of Arc, Jesus Christ and Peter the Apostle, and King Leonidas of Sparta.
