BLACK RAIN
Graham Brown

Reviewed by Tanzey Cutter

Thriller

Deep in the darkest regions of the Amazon jungle are the ruins of a legendary Mayan city. Also there are a violent indigenous tribe of people sworn to protect the sacred temple from outsiders and some nasty, frightening creatures.

In search of the lost city and the valuable treasure it is purported to contain, government operative Danielle Laidlaw leads an expedition into the rain forest on an increasingly dangerous quest. But they aren't the only ones seeking the secret buried within the ancient ruins. Is the discovery they all make going to be their downfall or their salvation?

Debut author Graham Brown has written a unique and compelling thriller that will keep your interest start to finish. BLACK RAIN is fast-paced, dangerous adventure at its very best. A sequel is in the works, and I can't wait to read it.

SUMMARY

Covert government operative Danielle Laidlaw leads an expedition into the deepest reaches of the Amazon in search of a legendary Mayan city. Assisted by a renowned university professor and protected by a mercenary named Hawker, her team journeys into the tangled rain forestโ€” unaware that they are replacements for a group that vanished weeks before, and that the treasure they are seeking is no mere artifact but a breakthrough discovery that could transform the world. Shadowed by a ruthless billionaire, threatened by a violent indigenous tribe, and stalked by an unseen enemy that leaves battered corpses in its wake, the group desperately seeks the connection between the deadly reality of the Mayan legend, the nomadic tribe that haunts them, and the chilling secret buried beneath the ancient ruins.
