Bavaria, May 1, 1776, 2 a.m. The forest of Ingolstadt, in the south of present-day Germany, is engulfed in darkness. All the inhabitants of the nearby town are peacefully asleep. But the branches, moss, and undergrowth quiver with discreet animal life, known only to the night. A man steps forward, a lantern in hand. He wears a long black coat, a scarf, and his white-powdered hair is elegantly swept to the sides. His name is Adam Weishaupt.
