In Renaissance Venice, a manuscript in an unknown language was left in a confessional booth in Saint Marks’ Basillica. No one has cracked the code in centuries. Nearly eight hundred years later, ISTF, a covert government organization, is about to decrypt the manuscript’s explosive secret. London, the present. When her parents left her in a foster home as an infant, something in Calla Cress broke. An expert in ancient symbols, and a master code breaker, Calla should consider herself lucky. Most twenty-eight-year-olds don’t land big dream jobs at the British Museum or decipher secret codes for the government. Now she’s asked to decipher a cryptic Renaissance manuscript at an international museum in Berlin. When the manuscript is stolen, Calla, NSA agent Nash Shields and tech entrepreneur Jack Kleve race to decode the mystery of its origin—before it’s too late. Calla uncovers an ancient secret and suspects that there’s more to her parents’ disappearance than meets the eye. Armed with clues to the manuscript’s true intent, what she discovers further puts her in the crosshairs of an enemy’s gunfire. At every turn, Calla is drawn deep into an ancient web of conspiracies and secrets that may have been dormant for centuries. Ancient history meets cutting-edge high tech in an action-packed, smart thriller with a unique quest guaranteed to keep you guessing—and sticking with characters after you finish reading.

An examination of the mythological, historical, and archaeological evidence for lost civilizations throughout the world • Explores unexplained mysteries such as the Caucasian mummies of China, the pyramids of Caral in Peru, and the genetically unique X-woman of Siberia • Examines evidence of lost, ancient civilizations in Asia, Europe, and the Americas, including extensive investigation into Atlantis • Shows that Siberia and the Amazon may have been cradles of humanity before Africa Over and over again, mainstream views of early history--which state that the first civilizations arose around 3500 BCE--are plagued by evidence of much older civilizations, evidence ranging from artifacts and inexplicable remains to pyramids and ubiquitous myths that clearly speak of great empires prior to the rise of the Sumerian city states and pharaonic Egypt. Viewing Atlantis and its many related myths as a metaphor for a long-lost global civilization, Patrick Chouinard explores the mythological, cultural, religious, and archaelogical evidence for many forgotten civilizations in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. He addresses unexplained mysteries from around the world, such as Caucasian mummies found in China, the pyramids of Caral in Peru, the “hobbit” remains on Flores Island, the giant heads of Easter Island, the lost legacy of Lemuria, the ideology and occult mysticism behind Nazi theory, and the genetically unique X-woman of Siberia. He also examines evidence of ancient alien visits and other supernatural phenomena in the distant past. Using recent archaeological findings, he shows that Siberia and the Amazon may have been cradles of humanity millennia before Africa. Sounding the call to continue searching ancient, remote, and formerly forbidden regions for lost cultures and genetic root races, Chouinard offers a new chronology for the emergence of human life and civilization as well as a new mechanism for how and why societies and species change over time. By finding lost peoples and their forgotten worlds, we can truly begin to understand the human race and learn from its long history.
