Publisher's Synopsis

Jack Hunter is always on a quest for lost art, ancient manuscripts, and anything else that'll romance the millions of viewers who watch his show each week. He hasn't always hit pay dirt in his searches though, and a string of empty global treasure hunts has left his show on the brink of cancellation. Jack needs a white whale, a holy grail, nothing less than a miracle to revive his career. Aloysius "Alo" Green likes his ivory towers. He's content to study from the comfort of a university library and publish papers nobody other than academics will ever read. But coded letters pointing to hidden Nazi treasure fall into his hands, and while colleagues warn him to keep them to himself, Alo can't stop obsessing. He makes a huge mistake and publishes a paper on his find, ignoring the danger doing so will bring. Jack is sure he's struck gold when his assistant brings Alo's paper to him. Alo wants nothing to do with Jack or his televised treasure hunt. But after Alo is threatened, it appears Jack is his best bet to silence those who seek to use him to find the vast wealth first. By trusting Jack, Alo might've saved himself⦠or made his worst decision yet.
