The latest pulse-pounding thriller from New York Times bestsellers Preston & Child.
There's no such thing as too great a risk for a man living on borrowed time.
Gideon Crew is out of a job but it is the least of his worries: his doctor has just told him he has only months to live.
Time enough for one last adventure.
For a century, the infamously enigmatic hieroglyphs etched into the Phaistos Disk have defied interpretation. But now, after five long years of computer-aided code-breaking, Gideon has a lead on an undiscovered civilization, long-lost beneath the sands of the Egyptian Sahara.
As a man facing the end of his days, Crew needs little persuasion to pack up and head out into the heart of the desert.
