A BURIED EGYPTIAN TEMPLE. A SECRET KEPT FOR 6,000 YEARS. A RACE FOR LIFE
WORTH KILLING FOR.
An international TV audience waits breathlessly as archaeologists
prepare to break into a long-hidden vault beneath the Great Sphinx. But
student Macy Sharif has already made her own shocking discovery: a
religious cult raiding the site. Their prize? A map that will lead to
something far more astounding: the lost pyramid of Osiris. Framed by
corrupt officials, Macy goes on the run, trying to reach the only people
who can save her before she is silenced--permanently.
American archaeologist Nina Wilde, once a renowned scientific explorer,
now all but blacklisted by her colleagues, is trying to rebuild her
reputation. But Macy's plea for help will send Nina and ex-SAS bodyguard
Eddie Chase on the ultimate treasure hunt. From the streets of Manhattan
to a yacht off Monaco to a buried desert site, they'll follow an elusive
trail stalked by a killer determined to uncover a six-thousand-year-old
secret. And beneath the forbidding desert, they'll enter a forgotten
world both wondrous and horrifying, where the ancient God of Death has
kept his secrets--until now.
