For 32 years, archaeologist Julius Gabriel has investigated the Mayan Calendar, a 2,500 year old enigma of time and space that predicts Humanity will perish on December 21st, 2012 (winter solstice). Julius believes certain unexplainable sites: The Great Pyramid of Giza, Stonehenge, the giant desert drawings of the Nazca Plateau, the Temple of Angkor Wat, the Pyramid of the Sun, and the key site--the Kukulcan Pyramid in Chichen Itza in the Yucatan Peninsula (site of the ancient asteroid impact) represent pieces of a global puzzle linked to the salvation of our species.
Ridiculed by his peers, Julius dies before he can solve the Doomsday prophecy. Now, only one person can prevent our annihilation--Julius's son, Michael, a patient locked up in a Miami mental asylum.
