Deep in the jungles of Peru the contest of the century is underway.
It's a race to locate a legendary Incan idol - one carved out of a
strange kind of stone. But a stone which in the present century
could be used for a terrifying new purpose. Now rival groups are
assembling their teams to hunt the idol down, at any cost. The only
clue to the idol's final resting place is to be found in a
400-year-old manuscript. Which introduces Professor William Race, a
mild-mannered but brilliant young linguist who is unwillingly
recruited to interpret the document that could lead to the idol
itself. So begins the mission that will lead Race and his
companions to a mysterious temple hidden in the foothills of the
Andes. There they find a carefully contrived sanctuary seething
with menace and unexpected dangers. But it is not until the silence
of the temple is breached that Race and his team discover they have
broken a golden rule . . . Some doors are meant to remain unopened.
