Deep in an Egyptian desert known as The Great Sand Sea lies an ancient treasure trove of Hittite gold... Legends say the gold belongs to the famed goddess, Sekhmet. But a map belonging to Nick Caine says otherwise...at least to Nick. He has returned to Egypt to claim the treasure, along with Ishi, Marie Da Vinci, and an old friend of her father’s, Akiiki Mubarek. Twelve long and painful years have passed since the last time Nick ventured into the unforgiving landscape—a trip that cost a college buddy who once owned the map his life soon after they began digging in the desert. Forced to witness his friend’s execution, he vowed never to come back...until now. The four treasure-hopefuls journey to the deadly wasteland just north of Sudan, and fortune seems to smile when they uncover one of Egypt’s last buried pyramids. But a band of violent marauders from Sudan descend on the site, threatening to not only claim the gold for themselves, but to spill innocent blood in the process. A chance for redemption quickly turns into a desperate fight to survive. This time, even Nick might not escape the devil in The Great Sand Sea... Acclaim for the authors "Gripping, adventurous, and romantic—J.R. Rain’s The Lost Ark is a breakneck thriller that traces the thread of history from Biblical stories to current-day headlines. Be prepared to lose sleep!" —James Rollins, international bestselling author of Bloodline "Aiden James has written a deeply psychological, gripping tale that keeps the readers hooked from page one." —Bookfinds on The Forgotten Eden "J.R. Rain delivers a blend of action and wit that always entertains. Quick with the one-liners, but his characters are fully fleshed out (even the undead ones) and you’ll come back again and again." —Scott Nicholson, bestselling author of The Red Church "The intense writing style of Aiden James kept my eyes glued to the story and the pages seemed to fly by at warp speed. Twists, turns, and surprises pop up at random times to keep the reader off balance. It all blends together to create one of the best stories I have read all year." —Huntress Reviews for The Devil’s Paradise**
