Journey of the Pharaohs
£7.99
In 1074 B.C., vast treasures disappear from the tombs of Egyptian Pharaohs. In 1927, a daredevil American aviator vanishes on an attempted transcontinental flight. And in the present day, a fishing trawler – along with its mysterious cargo – sinks off the coast of Scotland. How are these three mysterious events connected? And, more importantly, what do they mean for Kurt Austin and his NUMA team? As they search for answers, the NUMA squad join the agents of the British MI5 to take on a wide-reaching international conspiracy. Their common enemy is the Bloodstone Group, a conglomerate of arms dealers and thieves attempting to steal ancient relics on both sides of the Atlantic. Kurt and his team soon find themselves wrapped up in a treacherous treasure hunt as they race to find the lost Egyptian riches – before they fall into the wrong hands.

ANCIENT SECRETS. MODERN WEAPONS . . .
________
When Kurt Austin rescues the crew of a Scottish trawler, he finds himself trying to save them not once but twice. First, from the violent storm that dashes their vessel into jagged rocks and, second, from the deadly gunmen desperate to get their hands on its lost cargo of stolen Egyptian artefacts.
Soon Kurt – with the assistance of resourceful MI5 agent Morgan Manning – is on the hunt for the source of these artefacts. It’s a journey that takes them around the world and draws the fury of the mysterious Bloodstone group – an international network of murderous individuals who’ll kill anyone in their way.
But what do gunmen want with ancient loot?
One thing is for sure, if Kurt is to find out he’s going to be in the cross hairs of some ruthless and well-armed foes . . .
