Sam Force travels to Belize to investigate an ancient and evil secret
society in this second novel of the Pyramid Hunters series, which
School Library Journal called a mix of "Indiana Jones, National
Treasure, and The Da Vinci Code."
After his adventures in Egypt, Sam Force is finding it nearly impossible
to return to everyday life at boarding school--especially now that he
knows his parents are still alive. However, his Uncle Jasper has banned
him from setting off in search of them until he can go with Sam, but
Sam's not sure he can wait that long. When a man turns up at his
school--a man he last saw in the Egyptian desert--he knows he can't.
Sam needs to continue the hunt for his parents. Luckily, his friend Mary
Verulam has a plan, and before he knows it he's on his way to Belize.
However, from the moment he lands, Sam finds himself being followed and
threatened. When his research leads him to a local crocodile park and an
encounter with the leader of a mysterious crocodile cult, things become
really dangerous.
Sam is left to wonder if he'll ever be able to locate his parents--and
if there is anyone he can trust.
