AN ANCIENT WARRIOR.


AN INCREDIBLE TREASURE.


A LETHAL ENEMY.


It's the opportunity of a lifetime—the chance to prove that a tomb containing the remains of the legendary hero Hercules actually exists. If American archaeologist Nina Wilde can locate it, it will be the most important historical find ever unearthed. But as Nina and her ex-SAS bodyguard, Eddie Chase, begin their search, it's clear that others want to find the tomb—and the unimaginable riches within—and will do anything to get there first.


Who will find the tomb of Hercules first, and what fantastic treasure does it hold? From New York to Shanghai, from Switzerland to the diamond mines of Botswana, Nina and Eddie must stay one step ahead of their enemies in a race to solve a mystery as ancient as civilization itself. But when a beautiful woman from Eddie's past joins the hunt, all the rules change—and in this life-and-death game, their next move may be the most dangerous one of all.

      This is action/adventure with a vengeance. Britisher Eddie Chase wipes out dozens of villains with hard-fisted and inventive methods with his feisty lover, Nina, a scientist. It's the action that's the focus, not history or Hercules. Narrator Gildart Jackson handles a variety of stock characters with breathless English intonations. He's good at portraying the denizens of foreign lands but not great with his depictions of women. (He adds a bit of a lisp, for example.) At one point he "does" a Sean Connery-type fellow; the tone and cadence are nicely familiar and fun. In the end, this is hard to put down. D.R.W. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
