Demons. Demons of death, guarding the treasures of the Inca Kings, across the centuries and men of monstruous greed who order death from behind smiling faces...
Dirk Pitt must face both on a journey that begins high in the Peruvian Andes with a perilous dive into the grim waters of a sacrificial well where the Incas flung hundreds to their deaths. It leads them to Pueblo de los Muertos – the City of the Dead – and the legend of an Inca King, Huascar, who possessed a sacred gold chain that needed two hundred men to lift it. A chain that was sent far across the sea to keep it from the Spanish conquerors, to a hiding place guarded by a winged demon, in a river that ran beneath a desert.
And after Pitt, huaqueros – grave robbers. Men like Tupac Amoru, whose tools of trade are torture, rape and death; who takes Congress women Loren Smith hostage for Pitt's life...
