    About this ebook

    It begins as a simple mission to retrieve an artifact from a cave in a mountainous region of France. But when a rich Irish businessman learns of what was found there, rugged tomb raider Adam "Jacky" Jackson will be propelled into his greatest and most dangerous adventure yet. From the infamous Money Pit in Nova Scotia, to a vast castle in Ireland and an abandoned prison in South America, he will tackle fiendish traps and face dangerous enemies who are also on the hunt for an ancient king's burial chamber and the power it holds.
