Ruins: A Novel of Portugal

By Charles D. Summers

When archaeologist Temple McKenzie went to Portugal in 1952 to join a dig in progress, little did he anticipate the trials that would ensue. Thanks to some tips and breaks, he considered the possibility that there might be hidden art treasures from World War II secreted by the Nazis either at or near the dig site. Though scattered and defeated, exiled Nazi leaders planned on a Fourth Reich and needed money and names to bring that about. Ruins traces the day-to-day workings of a dig, with the added suspense of lurking Nazis and Gypsies and fortune hunters, and ex-spies. Laced with a taste of Portugal, Ruins is a suspense novel that satisfies.
