Former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone has received an
anonymous note carrying an unfamiliar Web address. Logging on, he's
shocked to see Cassiopeia Vitt, a woman who's saved his life more than
once, being tortured at the hands of a mysterious man who has a single
demand: Bring me the artifact she's asked you to keep safe. The only
problem is, Malone doesn't have a clue what the man is talking about,
since Cassiopeia has left nothing with him. So begins Malone's most
harrowing adventure to date--one that offers up astounding historical
revelations, pits him against a ruthless ancient brotherhood, and sends
him from Denmark to Belgium to Vietnam then on to one of the greatest
archaeological sites in the world: the tomb of China's First Emperor,
guarded by an underground army of terra-cotta warriors, which has
inexplicably remained sealed for more than two thousand years--its
mysteries about to be revealed.
