Something bad happened to Matinicus "Matt" Hawkins in Afghanistan.
The ex-SEAL was grievously wounded in an ambush that killed men
under his command and almost ended his life. When he pushed for an
investigation, he was kicked out of the Navy with a psychiatric
discharge. The doctors put his shattered leg back together, but the
bitterness destroyed his marriage. Five years later, Hawkins is
jerked out of his tranquil life as a designer of undersea robots. A
super-secret government group wants him to go back to Afghanistan
on a strange and dangerous mission. A Georgetown University
historian has unearthed evidence that could lead to the fabulous
treasure of Prester John, a legendary Christian ruler of an eastern
empire. The historian has disappeared, and the government wants
Hawkins to track down the treasure as a matter of national
security. The centerpiece of the trove, an emerald-encrusted gold
scepter, is the linchpin in the Prophet's Necklace, code-name for a
plot that is intended to kill more people than the attack on the
Twin Towers and rally others to the terrorist cause. Hawkins sees
his mission to foil the plot as an opportunity to search for
answers. He pulls together an eclectic team that includes his
ex-wife, a former comrade-in-arms and a mentally unstable computer
whiz. Backed by his unlikely team, Hawkins will travel thousands of
miles and hundreds of years on an amazing time-space odyssey. He'll
face off against a cold-blooded killer. Probe the underwater
secrets of an ancient tomb. Navigate the treacherous stands of an
unimaginable conspiracy. And in the process, will discover that
there are treasures even more valuable than gold.
