Gideon Crew—brilliant scientist, master thief—is living on
borrowed time. When his mysterious employer, Eli Glinn,
gives him an eyebrow-raising mission, he has no reason to
refuse. Gideon's task: steal a page from the priceless Book
of Kells, now on display in New York City and protected by
unbreakable security.
Accomplishing the impossible, Gideon steals the
parchment—only to learn that hidden beneath the gorgeously
illuminated image is a treasure map dating back to the time
of the ancient Greeks. As they ponder the strange map, they
realize that the treasure it leads to is no ordinary
fortune. It is something far more precious: an amazing
discovery that could perhaps even save Gideon's life.
Together with his new partner, Amy, Gideon follows a trail
of cryptic clues to an unknown island in a remote corner of
the Caribbean Sea. There, off the hostile and desolate
Mosquito Coast, the pair realize the extraordinary treasure
they are hunting conceals an even greater shock-a revelation
so profound that it may benefit the entire human race . . .
if Gideon and Amy can survive.
