FBI agent Sean Reilly and his lover, archaeologist Tess
Chaykin, find themselves in an entirely different situation
than their previous adventures. It seems there's an ancient
herb from the jungles of Central America that is so
powerful, it causes a unique psychedelic experience the
likes of which could change the entire world. Of course,
when major forces learn of its existence, the pursuit to
find it first is brutal and widespread.
As Sean and Tess are drawn into the volatile situation,
they know time is running out for both sides -- good and
bad -- to control this herb and what could lead to the end
of civilization as we know it.
The gripping suspense and surprising twists of turns of
this arcane thriller will leave you breathless with
anticipation of the resolution. Another winner for this
author.
FBI agent Sean Reilly and his girlfriend, archaeologist
Tess Chaykin, heroes of Raymond Khoury's
bestselling Templar novels, return in another edge-of-your-
seat thriller that reaches from present day back to 1700s
Mexico - and possibly beyond.
What if there was a drug, previously lost to history in
the jungles of Central America, capable of inducing an
experience so momentous - and so unsettling - that it
might shake the very foundations of Western civilization?
What if powerful forces on both sides of the law got wind
of that drug and launched a vicious, uncompromising
pursuit to possess it?
InRaymond Khoury's million-copy-selling Templar
novels, Reilly and Tess traveled the globe to unravel
ancient mysteries with present-day ramifications. In THE
DEVIL'S ELIXIE, they find themselves dragged into a race -
against the clock, against a brutal drug kingpin known
as "El Brujo" - the sorcerer - and even against
government authorities - to merge two divergent trails,
one several hundred years old, the other as current as a
heartbeat, that could drag humanity to the brink of self-
destruction.
