Four centuries ago, a precious idol was hidden in the jungles of Peru. To the Incan people, it was still the ultimate symbol of their spirit. To William Race, an American linguist enlisted by the U.S. Army to decipher the clues to its location, it's the ultimate symbol of the apocalypse...

Carved from a rare stone not found on Earth, the idol possesses elements more destructive than any nuclear bomb-a virtual planet killer. In the wrong hands it could mean the end of mankind. And whoever possesses the idol, possesses the unfathomable-and cataclysmic-power of the gods...

Now, in the foothills of the Andes, Race's team has arrived-but they're not alone. And soon they'll discover that to penetrate the temple of the idol is to break the first rule of survival. Because some treasures are meant to stay buried...and forces are ready to kill to keep it that way...

Anyone who dreams of being the one to save the world. And anyone who wants to know how to survive in th water with caimans.

All of it. I keep reading it. I finish it. I start something else and then start reading it again.

A few spots with the Germans, but it turns out not to be as much as I thought it was going to be.

Its very weill done and a good read.
