The year is 1793. France burns with revolution. Monarchies crumble across Europe, and the blood of kings stains the cobblestones of Paris. Yet beneath the wars of men, a deeper battle stirs — one waged in secrecy for millennia. Vigilantia, the third novel in Christopher Pilie’s Crimson Rada series, draws readers into the hidden war between faith and corruption, spirit and empire, truth and deception.

The Rossignol family—refugees of rebellion, survivors of exile—find themselves at the heart of this ancient struggle. When Louis Rossignol learns of a relic called the Vesica Piscis and a mysterious timepiece crafted by the House of Rossignol Horologers, he uncovers a secret stretching back to the dawn of Christendom: a schism between a righteous and a corrupt bloodline, each vying to shape the fate of the world.

“They are building the tower again—this time not with stone, but with tongues.”

Across Europe, the family is scattered. In Rome, Louis and Bishop Matteo struggle to decipher the relic’s meaning as whispers of demonic conspiracies infect the Vatican’s highest circles. In Vienna, Dianna Saint-Amand becomes entangled in the lives of Salieri and Beethoven, where music itself becomes a battleground of revelation. Meanwhile, Gustave—haunted and hunted—bears the dark ring that binds the family’s fate, pursued by forces that seek to reunite it with the ancient watch… and open a door never meant to be opened.

“The relics were divided for a reason. To join them again is to tempt the end of days.”

From the guillotines of Paris to the cathedrals of Rome and the frostbitten peaks of the Alps, Vigilantia continues the saga begun in Sugar and Blood—a tale of divine geometry, forbidden knowledge, and the endurance of faith against the encroaching shadow of the apocalypse. It is both historical and prophetic, a meditation on how the battles of the past echo into the world we know today.

“When time falters, the faithful must remember: vigilance is salvation.”

Prepare for the next chapter in the Crimson Rada series—where reason meets revelation, and history itself trembles on the edge of divine reckoning.
