2016br. Iris Kastelein lavora presso Bartels & Peters, un rinomato studio legale di Amsterdam dove, in cambio di laute parcelle, si soccorre il prossimo nei guai con la legge. Uno "sporco lavoro", come si suole dire, reso ancora più proibitivo dal fatto che Iris deve occuparsi anche di Aaron, il bambino avuto da un uomo dal quale si è sentita attratta una sola volta in vita sua. Tra sessanta ore di lavoro alla settimana, riunioni, rapporti, cause, negoziati che si succedono a ritmo infernale, corse all'asilo per recuperare Aaron, Iris sa, però, di essere una giovane donna grintosa, indipendente, con un bambino semplicemente adorabile. Un giorno, tuttavia, una scoperta sconvolgente viene a disintegrare tutte le sue certezze. Una futile indagine sulle cause della morte di un pesciolino, contenuto nell'acquario apparso di punto in bianco qualche anno prima nel salotto di sua madre, la conduce sulle tracce di un certo Ray Boelens. Ray non è soltanto il primo proprietario dell'acquario. Ray è, secondo la giustizia olandese, un assassino accusato di un crimine orrendo: avrebbe ucciso, con numerose coltellate. la sua vicina insieme con la figlia perché non ricambiava i suoi sentimenti, e avrebbe poi infierito sulla piccola spegnendo sul suo cadavere un mozzicone di sigaretta. Questo "mostro della porta accanto", infine, spedito a marcire tra le mura di un manicomio criminale, porta stranamente lo stesso cognome della madre di Iris: Boelens.
2016br. 1940. Inghilterra. La guerra arriva anche nel Regno Unito con il nome "Operazione attacco dell'Aquila". È l'inizio della Battaglia d'Inghilterra. I piloti inglesi combattono con i propri mezzi contro un nemico dieci volte superiore. Tra loro c'è una squadriglia denominata "Pecore nere", composta di veri e propri assi. Il loro capo, Simon Farrell, li ha addestrati per essere veloci e letali in combattimento, ma qualcosa cambia. Da un passato lontano, spunta una maledizione che va a decimare i piloti delle "Pecore nere". Demoni, mostri e paure affiorano dalle anime dei giovani guerrieri, facendoli capitolare uno a uno. L'unico a voler scoprire la verità è Farrell, che lotta contro tutto e tutti nella speranza di salvare quel che resta della sua squadriglia. Un thriller veloce e crudo. Primo capitolo di una trilogia che poggia le sue fondamenta sulla lotta tra alcuni discendenti dei Templari e i servi del Demonio che, nei secoli, sono riusciti a penetrare nelle stanze del potere, fino a inquinare la Chiesa.
