Publisher's Synopsis
The icy tundra of the Arctic is no place for an Aztec temple.
Alex swore he was done with expeditions and mysterious temples, content to spend the rest of his life teaching high school students, tending his vineyard, and figuring out his relationship with Lucas Griffith. He was a damn good Anthropologist, one of the best, but no amount of money could convince him to go back into the field. Even his own curiosity isn't enough to make him accept a mission to the Arctic to inspect the new temple first hand. Until Lucas is accused of espionage. Everything Alex thought he knew about his partner is suddenly put into question when they are lured into a trap and arrested for treason. A soldier turned Archeologist, Lucas has had some questionable dealings with a Russian Oligarch, his cult, and the sale of a large number of artifacts. Kirill Drago is a master manipulator, obsessed with the mysterious temple, and will do anything to finally possess it. Exacting revenge on Lucas for betraying him was an added bonus. Alex is the key achieving it all. Drago will test the limits of Alex and Lucas's bond as he leads his cult into the very depths of Arctic for the power hidden within the temple.
