Legendary gold. A mythical city. A race like no other.
1976: years after becoming the first man on the moon, Neil Armstrong leads a 100-strong expedition into the Ecuadorian rainforest, searching for the Tayos Gold – a rumoured repository of golden books, thought to have been written by a higher intelligence than humans. The team of explorers and scientists find nothing except more questions.
Now: when Prihya Sibal is kidnapped by a foe from her past, Jules Sibeko and the Lost Origins Recovery Institute learn she was exploring an ancient site on the island of Malta. Following her trail, and a cipher that unlocks an ancient navigation device, it is clear she was close to unlocking the true location of the Tayos Gold.
And now a religious cult, funded by billionaire Valerio Conchin, is one step ahead.
Using a combination of recently uncovered ancient technology and state of the art computer modeling, Jules leads a team of his own into the remote Amazonian region to discover whether Armstrong’s mission was a fantasy, or simply looking in the wrong place.
A mystery to solve, a fight to control the Tayos Gold, and a race to an ancient city beyond the rainforest all adds up to another epic archaeological thriller for the Lost Origins team.
