Archaeologist Nina Wilde can find long-lost Atlantis, helped by reclusive billionaire Kristian Frost, his beautiful daughter Kari, and ex-SAS bodyguard Eddie Chase. But a powerful and mysterious organization opposes revealing the secret submerged for 11,000 years. Others have already died — Nina’s own parents. From the streets of Manhattan, Brazilian jungle, Tibetan mountaintop, to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, they race to save all human life on earth.
Bournemouth, sud dell'Inghilterra: l'archeologa Nina Wilde e il fidanzato Eddie Chase, ex SAS e guardia del corpo, decidono di far visita alla famiglia di Eddie. Sono appena partiti, quando si trovano per le mani uno strano messaggio. Lo storico Bernd Rust è convinto di aver scoperto come localizzare Excalibur, la leggendaria spada di re Artù: un'arma di una potenza incredibile e devastante che, se finisse nelle mani sbagliate, rischierebbe di alterare per sempre gli equilibri mondiali... Nina è scettica, ma quando Bernd viene ucciso in modo efferato sotto i suoi occhi deve ricredersi. Sono davvero troppe le persone interessate al ritrovamento: alcuni mercenari russi sembrano disposti a tutto pur di impadronirsene, e persino il governo americano è coinvolto. E se Excalibur esistesse davvero? Se fosse più di una semplice spada? Nina e Eddie vengono così catapultati in una caccia senza confini, dai torridi paesaggi del Medio Oriente ai misteriosi castelli austriaci, dalla verde campagna inglese ai gelidi mari della Russia, in una frenetica corsa contro il tempo che li costringerà a rischiare ogni cosa, faccia a faccia con un nemico spietato.
Per l'archeologa Mina Wilde è l'opportunità di una vita. Dai suoi studi su antichi testi ha tratto la convinzione che esista una tomba contenente i resti del mitologico Ercole. Se riuscisse a localizzarla, si tratterebbe del ritrovamento archeologico più importante della storia. Mina e Eddie Chase, l'ex SAS guardia del corpo, ora diventato suo compagno di vita e d'avventura, partono alta ricerca della tomba di Ercole, ma appare subito chiaro che ci sono altri sulle tracce della tomba perduta e delle favolose ricchezze che potrebbe contenere. E, come se non bastasse, Chase deve anche fare i conti con una figura che compare dal suo passato. Nina e il suo compagno si trovano ben presto al centro di un'oscura cospirazione, che ha seminato corruzione lungo un filo rosso che percorre tutta la terra, dalla Svizzera a Shanghai, dal Botswana a Londra: inizia per loro una drammatica corsa contro il tempo per individuare la tomba prima che cada nelle mani sbagliate...
