The Heir of Achilles

A legendary discovery. A race against time. A secret that could rewrite history.

When Russia attacked Snake Island in February 2022, millions heard Ukraine’s defiant response: “Russian warship, go f*ck yourself.” But few knew about the island's mysterious past—where the Greeks believed the souls of their greatest heroes roamed after death.

From the island’s rubble, Russian soldiers unearth relics thought only to exist in myth. As this discovery threatens to reshape the global order, gifted CIA analyst Noa Banks gets a desperate call from her ex-boyfriend, archaeologist Matías Alvarez. His urgent news propels them on a perilous mission, chasing lost clues from the ruins of Greece to the sands of Egypt. Together, Noa and Matías must evade a fearsome enemy as they uncover a hidden legacy that challenges everything they know.
