What started out as a covert operation investigating a series of gruesome murders, rapidly developed into a fierce political clash between friendly nations. The search for one of mankind's strangest treasures explodes into a violent race that can not be controlled. Three thousand years ago, Amenhotep II ruthlessly swept across the Middle East conquering and looting those opposing Egypt. Legends glorified how this pharaoh assembled incredible riches with the flowing blood of his armies. With his death the jewels were lost. For thirty centuries greedy men sought these lost jewels in vain. Then amidst the cries of their tormented victims, Nazi Germany jerked the forgotten quest from their dusty pages of legends and thrust it into bloody reality. Challenging the terrifying memories of Austria's Mauthausen death camp to a serpent plagued island off Mexico, Harry Warren and Andreana Shachori struggle to stop another sinister plot hatched by Hitler's destroyed Third Reich. Storming through one blood soaked clash after another, the naval commander fights to stop this old Nazi project to locate Amenhotep's lost jewels by using DNA and genetic memory transfer. Assassination attempts, plane crashes, snakes, and a volcano eruption are a few of the challenges thrown at the CIA and Mossad agents as they rush to stop a vile project from seeking success. From the misty corridors of death reaches the powers of ancient Egyptian gods as they help Harry smash this quest for jewels belonging to one of their number.
