Years ago, an ancient Phoenician statue known as the Navigator was stolen
from the Baghdad museum, and there are men who would do anything to get their
hands on it. Their first victim is a crooked antiquities dealer, murdered in
cold blood. Their second very nearly is a UN investigator who, were it not for
the timely assistance of Austin and Zavala, would now be at the bottom of a
watery grave.
What's so special about this statue? Austin wonders. The search for answers
will take the NUMA team on an astonishing odyssey through time and space, one
that encompasses no less than the lost treasures of King Solomon, a mysterious
packet of documents personally encoded by Thomas Jefferson, and a top-secret
scientific project that could change the world forever.
And that's before the surprises really begin...
