Synopsis:
A myth of archeology and the spirit of classic adventure come together in this surprising and entertaining action-mystery novel. A prehistoric device to study the heavenly bodies, some "batteries" from two thousand years ago: these and other unusual, puzzling discoveries occupy the vast amount of free time Morgan Lafet now has. After the tragic death of his brother in an underwater site, this young doctor in classical archaeology, a specialist in ancient Greece, stopped caring about his career. Determined never to set foot on an excavation again, he secluded himself in a small office in the basement of the Louvre, where – thanks to contacts and a slight blackmail to the director of the museum – he has created a department to study unsolved archaeological files. A position that not even he takes seriously, but where he does not endanger anyone. However, everything changes when Lafet is commissioned to inventory the library and collection of antiquities of a renowned historian, who died in strange circumstances, and discovers the missing piece of a famous Roman mosaic, a sword with a special seal… … and a clue. strewn with danger to locate the most sought-after tomb since ancient times, a sepulcher between history and legend: the place where Alexander the Great rests.
