The Lost Continent

Legends don't stay buried

Elisa Hill hunts myths for a living - ancient legends, forgotten civilizations, artifacts the rest of the world swears don't exist. It's more than a job. Her parents spent their lives chasing the lost continent of Lemuria, and the world called them frauds for it. Elisa has spent years since trying to clear their name, one dig, one relic, one dangerous score at a time.

She may have finally found her answer. Deep in a booby-trapped Caribbean cave, guarded by hired swords and sealed for who knows how long, Elisa recovers a stone tablet unlike anything she's ever seen: the Keystone of the Naa'cal, rumored to hold the location of a gateway back to Lemuria itself. If it's real, it doesn't just prove her parents right - it rewrites everything the world thinks it knows about human history.

She's not the only one who wants it.

Lucas Davalos - mercenary, thief, and the closest thing Elisa has to a rival who might also be something more - has been hired by a secretive organization known only as the Order to find the gateway first, whatever the cost. And a third hunter has entered the game: Seth, a silver-haired killer who doesn't care about the money or the mystery, only the thrill of putting a blade through anyone who gets in his way.

The chase runs from Caribbean shorelines to the ancient temples of India, through double-crosses, uneasy alliances, and secrets buried far deeper than Lemuria itself. Elisa will need every blade, every trick, and every ally she can find - because the continent didn't just vanish. Something made it disappear. And whatever that something is, it isn't finished with the world yet.

From Percival Constantine, author of the Luther Cross series, comes the first book in The Myth Hunter saga. A globe-trotting pulp adventure built for readers who like their treasure hunts fast, their mysteries ancient, and their body counts high.
