The Carian Codex
Book 1: The C.O.R.E. Trilogy
STATUS: Finished, Open to inquiries
As an academic archaeologist your career has never been built on your extraordinary finds, but how well you present others’ findings in a lecture hall or at a conference. Your colleagues think you are a fraud. Would you reveal the discovery of an artifact that was 8,000 years ahead of its time – even if it meant risking the lives of those closest to you?”
Set against a backdrop of archaeological intrigue and dangerous discoveries, this adventure mystery takes readers on a journey through history, where every uncovered truth holds the potential for peril.
Dr. James Oliver Chambers, a renowned archaeologist, is invited to investigate a stunning discovery: an ancient astrolabe that predates all known human civilization. But what begins as professional curiosity quickly escalates into a perilous journey, drawing Chambers and his partner, Christie Keaton, the head curator of antiquities at the Smithsonian, into a dangerous web of ancient conspiracies, shadowy organizations, and government intrigue – all while protecting a secret that has remained hidden for millennia.
As Chambers and Keaton follow the artifact’s trail from the ruins of Gobekli Tepe in Turkey to the quiet hills of Serbia along the great Danube River, their bond deepens, forged in the face of relentless threats and impossible choices. But they are not alone. Dark forces, intent on discovering these ancient secrets for themselves, will stop at nothing to ensure they hold their power. Torn between the pursuit of truth and the growing danger to those he holds dear, Chambers must confront a harrowing dilemma: Will he risk everything, including Christie, to reveal the greatest discovery of his career – or will the truth cost him more than he’s willing to sacrifice?
