The Atlantis Code

Discover the action-packed adventure thriller, perfect for fans of The Da Vinci Code, Indiana Jones and C. J. Sansom

Hidden away in a dusty antiquities shop in Egypt, an ancient artefact is discovered.

Quickly, it becomes the centre of the deadliest archaeological hunt in history . . .

________

The 20,000 year-old relic is inscribed with what appears to be the long lost language of Atlantis.

Only one man is able to decode its meaning: the world's foremost linguist, Dr Thomas Lourdes. But can he stay alive long enough?

Meanwhile, an earthquake shocks Spain, uncovering a most unexpected site - one which the Vatican rushes to be the first to explore.

Could it be that the lost city of Atlantis is ready to be found?

And if so, is the world ready for her secrets?
