"A prophecy of the disciple who would not die, a first-century shrine on a deserted island, a Crusader who would not Crusade, a recluse in the wilderness of Eastern Europe, the journal of a man during his voyage to the New World? These men are more than connected, my friend. These men are all one in the same."

These are the words of Professor Ray Kruppold, shared at a cocktail party in 1973. Professor Kruppold, a religious studies professor with a penchant for immortality, spent much of his adult life piecing together a collection of seemingly unconnected records and legends, pursuing a mysterious man that he himself had encountered when he was just 16 years old. Now, nearing the end of his life, Kruppold passes along this information to a young man named Tom, a civil engineer and soon-to-be father, who is on his own informal quest.

Rumors of Marty Goode-everyone needs something to believe in.
