Skin and Bones

From the USA Today bestselling author of SERPENT and the bestselling author of THE FORGOTTEN FORTUNE comes a fast-paced archaeological thriller!

"Here there be giants!"

It was supposed to be a vacation in Monaco, but treasure hunter and former Navy SEAL "Bones" Bonebrake has learned to expect the unexpected. So, when he finds himself at the center of a controversial archaeological discovery on the island of Sardinia, it isn't much of a surprise.

The remains of giants, mammoth beings from antiquity, are laid out before him. Most appear to be long since decayed, but one does not. Looking like it-she-only recently died, the enormous woman's perfectly preserved corpse is a find like no other, a real-life "Queen of Giants." But when the excavation team suddenly disappears overnight, Bones quickly realizes that there's more to the mysterious find than meets the eye.

"Classic adventure for the modern reader! Fans of Indiana Jones and National Treasure will love the Bones Bonebrake Adventures!"
