SUMMARY: When archaeologist Annja Creed is hired to find the lost city of Promise in Brazil, she is more than intrigued.

Making her way from the steamy port of Belรฉm to the brutal slums of Northeast Brazil, Annja faces unexpected peril, from poisoned arrows to Amazonian anacondas. As she navigates through a land where spirituality collides with the material world, Annja must distinguish between what is real and what is imagined for fear of making a wrong move. Because anyone or anything could be her enemy. And she's getting too close .
