Description

A German property developer revels in the belief he has discovered the key to unleashing the weapon responsible for sinking Atlantis. 

Dr John Hunter is the only archaeologist brave enough to risk all and validate the mysterious find. The decision leads the maverick academic on a journey from the headquarters of a clandestine organisation in England, to a lost city in the heart of the Brazilian Rainforest, before climaxing inside a chamber hidden deep beneath the sands of Egypt. 

Pioneering theory is spliced by epic battles, daring escapes, and elaborate schemes aimed at unravelling a secret history hidden from humanity for the past twelve thousand years.

A German property developer revels in the belief he has discovered the key to unleashing the weapon responsible for sinking Atlantis.

Can this legend be true? Dr John Hunter knows that his fellow archaeologists see him as a joke especially after looking for Atlantis and not finding it but he was hoping that they would believe him about the body that was found in the bog. John knows that there is something very important about the find but he has no way of proving. But that all changes when Hans Hoffman finds him and offers him all the resources that he needs. But something is off here but John is too excited knowing that he can find the answers that he is looking for.
Just when he thought things were going somewhere he gets a big shock, his ex Inma has been hired to be part of the team but John can't trust her she sold him out. But there are big problems to worry about as there is a group out there that wants what John has and they will stop at nothing to get it. Who can John trust as everyone wants to find this weapon that destroyed Atlantis? His old friend George gets tangled up in the mess as well and luckily he has the skills to help them find the answers.
John knows that things aren't going to end well for them as they have no idea who to trust as the Order has not given John much choice as to who he can turn to and Hoffman has shown his true colours. Can John save his friends from certain death? And will he find what he has always believed?
A great adventure full of surprises. Who doesn't love reading about Atlantis and what really happened to it. I really like John as doesn't give up on his friends even when everything is against him and he never gives up looking for answers. A really good solid read. I was lucky enough to receive a copy via Netgalley & the publishing house in exchange for my honest review.

I enjoyed the book and the global traveling. It's an interesting plot. Characters are well developed.

Think Indiana Jones goes to Brazil. Plenty of action, daring escapes and sinister backdrops make this novel an enjoyable read. Nothing especially new in the plot, but it's still proof that this genre of book is successful in drawing you into a hostile world where survival is Priority One. Great book for a rainy weekend spent before the fire with a glass (or two) of wine. Recommended.

An entertaining and fun to read book! It's a mix of Don Brown and Indiana Jones.
I liked how the plot developed and the well written characters.
It’s a page turner I read in one setting and couldn’t put it down.
Recommended!
Many thanks to Unbound and Netgalley for this ARC

A good all round adventure story. Written with well developed characters and strong elements of 'Indiana Jones'. In some places the plot was easy to guess, though that did not detract too much. A solid book great for a relaxing read.
