Overview
An ancient mystery ignites a modern day treasure hunt.
When an artifact with the potential to destabilize the Middle East disappears, experts Avery Turner and Carter Mosley are summoned to retrieve it. Their destination: Egypt. Their target: a centuries-old relic—a small pin of solid gold, shaped like an ancient goddess.
Needle, meet giant haystack.
Landing in Cairo, the pair are immediately blindsided by a hailstorm of bullets—clear proof that their reputations have put a target on their backs. Navigating through layers of corruption and in a race full of cutthroat treasure hunters, they must outsmart others who are just as desperate to find the pin.
With the situation escalating and a colleague going missing under suspicious circumstances, the odds seem stacked against them. But when a connection between the pin and a forgotten Egyptian queen emerges, the duo begin to think they are onto something.
As danger knocks and adventure calls, Avery and Carter learn that some legends are more real—and more valuable—than gold.
Bestselling authors LynDee Walker and Bruce Robert Coffin craft a gripping adventure thriller where past and present intertwine, threatening world order. Great for fans of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt series and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code.
