      A devastating secret belonging to the Maya that lies buried until the conquest of Mexico by Cortés.A priest becomes the first European keeper of the secret and flees a sinister organisation prepared to do anything to get hold of it. Several centuries later the burden is placed on Galileo’s shoulder: should he put an end to the world as he knows it or destroy the secret? In the end Galileo decides to safeguard it and keep it hidden for future generations – if they prove themselves worthy.Today four diverse musicians of early music come across a new score of Vivaldi and from that point on try to retrace the steps which from the Order of Malta will lead them to Galileo to try and decipher the cryptic messages left by the scientist almost five centuries earlier. But they will not be alone as a descendent of one of Galileo’s creditors is after the secret and he and his group of drug traffickers and criminals have been searching for it for centuries.The breathtaking ending will leave you open-mouthed, but don’t just take our word for it…
