A MURDEROUS, GLOBE-TROTTING CHASE FOR CLUES TO STOP A DEVASTATING WEAPON TWO CENTURIES IN THE MAKING.
Introducing Parker Quinn, a top investigator for the Department of Homeland Security's elite Cultural Property, Art, and Antiquities Department. Tasked with recovering stolen Iraqi artifacts during a brazen museum heist a decade earlier, Parker soon learns these lost relics hide secrets that could ignite a terror attack on an unprecedented scale.
In a race against time, Parker and her covert team of experts-a battle-hardened Marine, a tech-savvy MI6 agent, and a master linguist and expert of ancient languages-hunt for clues to a devastating weapon known as the Scarlet Death.
Their search takes them from the desolate, dangerous streets of Istanbul to secrets buried deep in the Flaming Cliffs of Mongolia. From a deadly encounter on the Mediterranean Sea to a sunken hidden vault in Mosul. Each clue brings them painstakingly closer as the clock ticks down in a deadly game of cat and mouse that threatens the lives of millions.
Will Parker Quinn and her team be enough to unravel the centuries-old mysteries and prevent a diabolical adversary from unleashing the Scarlet Death?
