Publisher Description

The tomb of China’s First Emperor, guarded by an underground army of terra-cotta warriors, has remained sealed for more than 2,000 years. Though it’s regarded as one of the greatest archaeological sites in the world, the Chinese government won’t allow anyone to open it. Why?   That question is at the heart of a dilemma faced by former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone, whose life is shattered when he receives an anonymous note carrying an unfamiliar Web address. Logging on, he sees Cassiopeia Vitt, a woman who’s saved his life more than once, being tortured at the hands of a mysterious man who has a single demand: Bring me the artifact she’s asked you to keep safe. The only problem is, Malone doesn’t have a clue what the man is talking about, since Cassiopeia has left nothing with him. So begins Malone’s most harrowing adventure to date—one that offers up astounding historical revelations, pits him against a ruthless ancient brotherhood, and sends him from Denmark to Belgium to Vietnam then on to China, a vast and mysterious land where danger lurks at every turn.

"I really enjoyed reading about the history of China and about how prolific they were as well as being so far advance with there technology. Though I like the Cotton Malone character, I wasn't that impressed with the story itself... "

    " Disappointed. Don't get me wrong, still a fine book... just not up uto Steve Berry's best. The most annoying thing was that the bridge scene in this book was the EXACT same as the one in The Balkan Escape (e-reader short story). Funny though, neither character got deja-vu. "

    " This novel didn't grip me the same way that some of his others have, which is a disappointment since -- up till now -- I think I've liked each Cotton Molone novel more than the previous one. Still, it's fairly entertaining and moves along at a good pace. It just isn't anything special. "
