Fans of Dan Brown and Clive Cussler will be unable to resist this
thrilling new Jack Howard action adventure from Sunday Times
bestseller David Gibbins. Underwater archaeologist Jack Howard is
back with a dangerous mission to uncover a shocking secret which
could rewrite history . . . In 1890, a British soldier emerges from
the depths of a Cairo sewer. He claims to have been trapped for
years in an ancient underground complex, and swears that he
stumbled upon an incredible collection of gold, treasure, and
thousands upon thousands of jars filled with papyri. Dismissed as a
madman who has lost his mind in the desert, his story was lost to
the world. Until now . . . When a colleague of Jack Howard's
stumbles across the soldier's story, the mention of a 'blinding
shaft of light' captures Jack's attention and resurrects the
forgotten ramblings. With the political situation in Egypt at
boiling point, Jack and his team risk everything in a treacherous
archaeological expedition to find the truth. Their mission will
take them across the globe, down to the darkest depths of the Red
Sea, and back through Egyptian history to the bloody reign of
Akhenaten, the Sun-Pharaoh - and keeper of a devastating secret.
