Book 2 of the Allen Pennbrook Series
Despite the notoriety after his adventure in Mexico, Dr. Allan Pennbrook’s job is in jeopardy from underfunding. So, when the wealthy bioengineer Randall Hill enlists Allan’s expertise to identify an artifact, he can’t refuse the handsome payment. The stone with a central red gem and gold spokes is framed in ancient Greek meandros, and Egyptian hieroglyphics translate to the foreboding “Heart of Chaos.”
Legend has it the Heart of Chaos leads to a mysterious life-saving power, and Hill will do anything to find it and help his terminally ill son. But Allan questions whether his motives are so selfless. Joined by his graduate assistant, Paul, Allan travels to the great civilizations of the Mediterranean, where they intersect with Laina’s current case. As the expedition races through ancient ruins and labyrinths, their quest unearths secret societies, underground testing, and a devious plot beyond comprehension.
In order to save Hill’s son—and his career—Allan’s journey will test his very soul while he fights to prevent a disaster of epic proportions.
