In the shadow of history's greatest monuments, a secret lies buried---one with the power to change the world...

When a long-lost artifact linked to the legendary Pharos of Alexandria surfaces, Dr. Matt Elliot---renowned archaeologist and Metropolitan Museum curator---is thrust into a deadly race against time. Legends whisper that the ancient lighthouse concealed more than a beacon of light...it hid a weapon of unimaginable power.

What begins as a scholarly pursuit in London with his teenage daughter quickly spirals into chaos---a break-in, a brutal murder, and a ruthless enemy with limitless resources. Billionaire industrialist William Roscoe will stop at nothing to unlock the artifact's deadly secrets.

With Scotland Yard's DI Susan Walker at his side, Matt follows a perilous trail from Oxford's ancient libraries to the scorching deserts of Sinai and the dazzling heights of Dubai. As the stakes rise and the bodies fall, he must outwit a global conspiracy before Roscoe's ambitions ignite a catastrophe that will reshape civilization itself.
