A world-weary man finds his career and personal life in shambles. To make matters worse, his wife has engaged in a rather heated affair with an attorney – a fact he discovers when his wife accidentally calls home and gives him a ringside seat to just how heated things are.

Broke, disenchanted and numb, Rick takes a vacation he cannot afford to sort out his life, if possible. Vacationing in a run-down resort on a shark-infested island in the Caribbean, he goes exploring against the advice of a local preacher who isn’t really a preacher at all, but a former British undercover agent with a secret – a secret that Rick discovers while exploring, quite by accident and that will change his life forever; a secret that spans a century, beginning in a darkened chamber of the Kaisers palace to a dank bunker in war-torn Berlin and ending in a musty church where the Odessa Legacy is reawakened.
