β¦ Synopsis
In Egyptβs Western Desert lies the tomb of an unnamed pharaoh that hides a secret so powerful, it could destroy the world as we know it.
Archaeologist and adventurer Matthew Connor has made a career of finding legends the world has all but forgotten. Though thereβs one in particular that has fascinated him for yearsβthe Emerald Tablets. Myth says that they possess the knowledge of the universe, allowing humankind to traverse Heaven and Earth, and have the power to bestow wealth and wisdom upon whoever possesses them. But if they fall into evil hands, it could cause a global disaster.
So when a former colleague stumbles across an ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic map that promises to lead to a pharaohβs tomb and the Emerald Tablets, thereβs no way heβs turning down her invitation to join the dig. He only has one stipulation: his best friends Robyn Garcia and Cal Myers come with him.
The road ahead isnβt going to be an easy one, and their shared dream of recovering the Emerald Tablets is being crushed at every turn. And just when they think itβs all over, they learn there are a few clues they have overlooked. But theyβre no longer the only ones searching for the Tablets. Now, the fate of the world hangs in the balance, and soon theyβll find out that when it comes to hunting legends, they canβt trust anyone.
