About this book
Description
Author Roger Sandford writes a fast paced spy thriller. Maria De Silva is Brazillian, ambitious and the world #2 professional golfer....but is there more to this stunning Latin beauty?
In 1911 Yale Professor Hiram Bingham III rediscovered the seventh wonder of the world, Machu Picchu in Peru. He claimed he found artifacts and skeletons but none of the fabled lost Inca gold.
So why has the US President called a White House meeting of America's gold experts to examine findings from NASA and the Space Shuttle that show signs of gold at Machu Picchu and Cusco?
And what has led to the Russian Ambassador in Hong Kong meeting with the Chinese Vice Premier and Macau casino owner?
Do Russia and China believe these gold reserves could change the balance of power between East, West and Asia? Perhaps the New Zealand director of the British Museum, Guy Parris, was correct when in 1976 he took issue with Hiram Bingham's findings?
Could Maria De Silva's allegiance with ex-KGB operatives running London's illegal internet gambling empire hold the key?
This classic political spy thriller, with its eclectic and fascinating array of characters, propels its readers on an intrepid and frenetic chase across the globe: London, Spain, Buenos Aires, Macau, Hong Kong and Peru...until the laws of nature and love determine the fate of the western world.
Fine: Very Tidy condition.
