Publisher's Synopsis
The Team
Financed by a billionaire philanthropist, this elite team--a soldier, an historian, a computer whiz, a weapons expert, and a thief--is tasked with finding the world's most legendary treasures.
The Mission
Fearing a German victory in WWI, the Romanian government signed a deal with Russia to protect the country's treasures. In 1916, two trains full of gold and the most precious possessions of the Romanian state--paintings, jewelry, and ancient artifacts--were sent to the underground vaults of the Kremlin. But in the turmoil of war, the Romanian treasure was scattered and lost.
The Prize
The collection is now valued at over $3.5 billion. Despite several attempts to find it, its location has remained a mystery...until now.
