Synopsis

Author Christopher C. Doyle blends science, history, and mythology in this explosive thriller packed with action, suspense, and mysteries from the past.

When a ruthless terrorist takes a number of hostages at the British Museum in London, Vijay Singh, member of an elite task force, must solve an impossible riddle to save the day. The clues are buried deep in the Mahabharata, an ancient Indian epic, as well as the mysterious megalithic sites of the Druids.

But what is the thread that binds together an ancient set of Assyrian inscriptions, which tell the story of a queen who lived four thousand years ago, and three Roman coins minted by Julius Caesar during the time of his Britain invasions in 55 BC and 54 BC, from which he returned empty-handed?

Now Vijay Singh and the international task force must unravel this ancient mystery and face a powerful and sinister enemy who will stop at nothing to acquire this terrifying secret—a secret which would spell doom for all of humanity.

Review:

Christopher with this installment has seriously convinced me that He is an Indian Author who requires to be read . I have read all his previous work and also admitting that writing historical fiction is always controversial when compared to mainstream views. What Christopher has done with this latest book , has extended the knowledge that existed in the ancient world already . In fact having researched ancient Sanskrit texts for a long time , what Christopher has come up with on this book , is not just simple fiction ; but the Historical connection as per what the known and shared knowledge was . The plot is racy , pages will flip past before you already know which happened to me. This guy proves , History matters and knowing history connects all of us ! Excellent read . Absolutely a recommendation for people who love historical fiction . You are gonna it , as much as I did . --By A Customer ,Jul 13, 2016
