Nationally bestselling author James Rollins takes readers on a gripping adventure to a nightmare buried beneath a desert wasteland. An explosion at a London museum triggers alarms in clandestine organizations worldwide, igniting a race to uncover the truth behind the blast. Lady Kara Kensington, whose family sacrificed greatly to establish the gallery now in ruins, teams up with Safia al-Maaz, the gallery's brilliant curator, to seek answers. Their investigation reveals new evidence suggesting that Ubar, a legendary lost city beneath the Arabian desert, may indeed be real and holds astonishing secrets. As Kara and Safia delve deeper, they are joined by Omaha Dunn, an international adventurer. Meanwhile, former U.S. Navy SEAL Painter Crowe, head of an elite counterespionage team, is on a mission to track down a traitor who has stolen vital information, with the trail leading him to Ubar. The treacherous journey into the Arabian Peninsula is fraught with danger, but the true peril lies in what awaits them beneath the sands. What is hidden is not just an ancient relic but a powerful force that could either create a utopia or destroy civilization as we know it. As ruthless agencies work to protect its secrets, the stakes rise for Kara, Safia, Crowe, and all who seek to uncover the truth, as they face the impending storm of chaos that threatens to engulf them all.
