THE THRILLING ADVENTURE OF A FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL IN A LOST ARABIAN CITY, FROM FORMER GREEN BERET ALEX DEKKER
‘An explosive adventure with the grit and authenticity that only a seasoned operator can deliver’
JACK CARR, bestselling author of The Terminal List
'Heart-pounding' - DAVID MCCLOSKEY
'Dekker is the real deal' - GREGG HURWITZ
'Starts like a rocket and never lets up' - BRAD TAYLOR
'To all of you who read me, Dan Brown, James Rollins and Daniel Silva, this is THE book for you. No question. No doubt. It's one terrific story' STEVE BERRY
Former Green Beret, Nate Wilde, knows it’ll take something special to get ahead in his new civilian career in academia.
Something like locating the lost Arabian city of Ubar, the legendary Atlantis of the Sands. So, when his proposal for an archaeological dig is rejected by Harvard and his expedition permit denied, he resolves to go anyway.
Success will require a return to the place where many of his comrades were killed or injured when their mission was compromised. In the company of the only men he truly trusts: three survivors of that fateful day – a small band of brothers that includes ex-SAS medic Wally Walton.
But infiltrating through war-torn Yemen is the least of their problems. A team of deadly mercenaries is racing towards Arabia’s Empty Quarter, their objective unknown. And Nate’s treasure hunt soon becomes a fight for survival, and one in which he and his team must prevail.
Because, win or lose, the outcome will change the course of history . . .
