Summary

In 1906, an Egyptologist uncovered a map carved in stone inside an ancient temple. Convinced that it pointed to a lost city of gold deep in the desert, he set out on another expedition the following year. He was never seen again. In present day Yale, a professor is murdered on the university campus, and a mysterious artefact is stolen from its vaults. Former Delta Force operator Ethan Frost is used to high-pressure situations, but when his former mentor Professor Goodwin is murdered and an old journal in his care is stolen, Ethan is pulled into a world he thought he'd left behind. Intent on bringing Goodwin's murderer to justice and retrieve the stolen artefact, Ethan teams up with the professor's research assistant and three of his former associates from the military. They soon discover that the professor's murder is connected to a conspiracy led by a ruthless Egyptian magnate seeking to re-write history and reshape the world in his image.
