Story
Half a century ago, an aberration was spotted by one of our earliest satellites, and summarily dismissed as a hardware malfunction. But it was no aberration. And no malfunction. It was an accidental glimpse of something extraordinary, and very old. Mocked for decades, the man who designed the satellite is now dead. With the system's original data firmly in the hands of former NTSB investigator Joe Rickards and anthropologist Angela Reed.

Story
A mummified corpse, over half a century old, is found in the cellar of an abandoned building in a remote New Mexico ghost town. Corrie Swanson is assigned what seems to her a throwaway case: to ID the body and determine cause of death. She brings archaeologist Nora Kelly to excavate the body and lend her expertise to the investigation, and together they uncover something unexpected and shocking: the deceased apparently died in agony, in a fetal position, skin coming off in sheets, with a rictus of horror frozen on his face. Hidden on the corpse lies a 16th-century Spanish gold cross.

The worst
Where do I start? The only protagonist in this book I had any empathy for was the cat Smokey and the author doesn’t even resolve what happened to him. The intended protagonist is a drunk who had roaches in her kitchen and she’s never redeemed beyond that. And let’s talk about the performance. If there are female characters how about getting someone that sounds female do those parts? And when pronouncing Italian words how about trying to pronounce them in Italian. Polizia - you actually pronounce all the vowels, this isn’t French people. Worst of all the so-called plot - it’s like reading two books with the same characters but no tie-in. There was little to nothing tying together the Nazi Antarctic lab and the Grail. Total waste of time

Please try again.
Gotta admit, I couldn’t finish this. The book started out “okay”, but the further they got on the expedition, the further from any semblance of credibility it ventured. I realize this is a somewhat fantastic premise. I’m more than willing to suspend disbelief. But come on!
Also, the book poorly jumps from one scene to the next making it difficult to follow.
I bailed out when the main character bailed out of the U boat. I suggest you bail out much sooner.
This might have been a good story idea, but it severely needs to be rewritten.

Hunt for a single story
We are in an old Nazi installation that kind of ends and we are looking for the Holy Grail these two are not related but the author tried to weave them together . To many people in the story to keep track of they die and you say OK what did this have to do with the story . Sorry

Frustrating storyline and narration
Huge Preston Child fan, but this was most disappointing. Reads more like an outline. Feels like author didn’t care to take the time to tell the whole story. The narrator didn’t give life to the characters, Happy, sad, scared, angry....it all sounded the same. Won’t be buying more of this series.
