This week Vicki chose “THE PHARAOH’S SECRET” by Clive Cussler.
If legends are true, the dead don’t stay that way long in Egypt. For the NUMA crew, the promise of these old stories might be their only hope of survival. When nearly the entire team is exposed to a dangerous substance called the Black Mist while working on the Italian island of Lampedusa, they and the rest of the town fall into a deathlike sleep. With their own men and women on the line, Kurt Austin and Joe Zavala must race to build a cure before it is too late.
While the remaining members of the NUMA crew kick up chaos as only then can, it draws them right into the sights of the organization responsible for the Black Mist. With a toxin of this magnitude at its disposal, this underground society plans to bring world leaders to their knees. But only is it can keep the cure a secret.
“THE PHARAOH’S SECRET” is available now at the Big Sandy Library.
