Atlantis: The Deep Truth

By Hassan Rasheid Foreman

The truth about Atlantis is in pieces. Six are remembered. The seventh is forgotten - and someone is willing to kill to bring it back.

When Jason Gates was ten years old, he found a piece of metal on a beach in Florida. He wasn't supposed to know what it was. By the time he was eighteen, the U.S. government had taken him out of high school in a black Lincoln and given him three things: a perfect-score IQ test, a clearance he was too young to understand, and a question. Plato had written about a sunken civilization west of the Pillars of Heracles. Was Plato right?

Thirty years later, off the books and out of the cold, Jason finds a Phoenician relief in Athens with a glyph he has seen only once before - on the metal fragment from his childhood. A friend in Berlin sends him a satellite scan of the same glyph carved into a wall beneath the Khafre pyramid. Then the friend dies of polonium poisoning.

To follow the trail, Jason will need help from a scholar with three doctorates and no past she will discuss. Together they will run from a small deadly cell inside Western intelligence - and toward the dying billionaire who has been buying their evidence for thirty years. The hunt will take them from the Khan el-Khalili by night to a lost portolan chart in a Piraeus warehouse, from the cores in a Lisbon laboratory to a sealed chamber 580 meters beneath the mid-Atlantic.

What's down there is older than every word we know. Six of its medicines have been waiting twelve thousand years to be remembered. The seventh was forgotten on purpose. And somebody, somewhere, has been waiting for Jason Gates to walk through the door.

A globetrotting techno-thriller - grounded in real geoscience, real archaeology, and the very real black market for ancient maps.
