Andrew Martin is a feted Australian architect whose success has come early. For many years he has admired Johannes Von Ruhland, an aging genius who draws with the hand of God but whose work has never been realised. When Martin finally meets the mythic Von Ruhland on a trip to Berlin, it is a dream fulfilled. What he does not know is that his life is about to be systematically destroyed by the very man he has come to love. The young architect's quest will be to find the reason why.
