Rogue archeologist Marah Chase is approached by MI6
with an impossible mission: to help them recover a dangerous
treasure lost after the death of Alexander the
Great.
Once a rising star in the field of
archaeology, Marah Chase is now a black-market treasure
hunter, her services available to the highest bidder. But
when she's caught "rescuing" relics in Syria before
they're destroyed by war, an MI6 officer named Joanna Mason
approaches her with an offer she can't refuse: help save
the world or rot in prison.
All Chase has to do is
find Alexander the Great's lost tomb, recover an ancient
weapon of mass destruction he may have used to conquer the
earth, and destroy it before the bad guys can get it. Among
those adversaries are a powerful church that believes in a
forgotten epoch of advanced alien technology, the white
supremacist thugs in its employ, and the rival archaeologist
who recently left Chase for dead.
Chase can't resist
a challenge—or the British spy recruiting her. There's just
one problem. If Chase has any hope of unearthing
Alexander's tomb before the forces hot on her heels do,
she'll need the help of the one person she's been afraid
to see since her fall from grace: Zoe Forrester, the heir to
a hidden journal that holds the key—and Chase's
ex-girlfriend.
A contemporary homage to the best
adventure stories of literature, television, and film,
Marah Chase and the Conqueror's Tomb is an
action-packed, globe-trotting quest, perfect for anyone
who's ever thought Indy really ought to be Jewish, female,
and gay.
