Description
Fact collides with fiction in Will Adams's fourth pulse-pounding adventure featuring archaeologist Daniel Knox. Welcome to Eden. Population: Zero. After she finds out her estranged father and sister are missing from their coastal nature reserve in Madagascar, TV zoologist Rebecca Kirkpatrick is on the first flight home. Underwater archaeologist Daniel Knox is searching for a sunken Chinese treasure ship when he hears of the disappearances and ventures to The Eden Reserve to investigate. Still with a vendetta to settle, Georgian gangster dynasty the Nergadzes send a hitman to hunt down Knox and avenge them. As Knox chases answers he realizes that the idyllic coral reef of Eden hides an ugly truth - someone is willing to kill and exploit people for a secret that will rewrite the history of the New World...
