Atlantis Legacy by David Gibbins
Egypt, 1334 BC In a horrifying ritual never before performed, a pharaoh is mummified alive for rejecting the old gods and thinking that he holds the key to immortality. Unknown to his tormentors, he had hidden away a secret brought to Egypt thousands of years before by the survivors of a lost civilisation …England, AD 1667 A richly laden merchantman is wrecked on the coast of Cornwall in one of the worst storms in memory. On board is a treasure map like no other, found in Rome and rescued from the ship by the captain - only for it to be lost again in one of the most forbidding places on earth.Present-day Marine archaeologist Jack Howard and his friend Costas are on the trail of an extraordinary mystery - one that takes them from a pyramid in Egypt to a terrifying dive in a submerged mine and a remote island in the Atlantic, on the hunt for ancient knowledge that could benefit all of humanity.ATLANTIS LEGACY is a thriller grounded in real-life archaeology and plausible scenarios - the hallmarks of an author whose own discoveries as an archaeologist and diver have provided the basis for twelve novels that have sold over three million copies and been published in 30 languages.
