The Lost Power (VanOps Series #1)
DA VINCI CODE meets TOMB RAIDER in the first striking installment of the rare ten-time-award-winning and #1 international bestselling VanOps global thriller series. #1 NYT bestselling author James Rollins called THE LOST POWER, "A book that defines 'page-turner.'"

Spain 1057: During a thunderous battle, the first King of Aragon wrestles Alexander the Great's priceless Egyptian weapon from the Moors, but finds it holds a terrifying and mysterious power.

Nearly a thousand years later, gunshots and the clatter of breaking glass rip through a fog-shrouded Napa Valley morning. Maddy Marshall, an app designer who studies martial arts, and her twin brother, engineer Will Argones, quickly run toward the sound. Horrified, they discover a sniper has cut down two members of their family.

Before the pool of blood on the living room floor is dry, their father sends the twins on a dangerous quest to recover Alexander's ancient relic. Joined by a broad-shouldered marine who harbors a secret alliance with VanOps, an ultra-black covert agency, they soon discover the global stakes involved in uncovering the past.

The trio follow time-worn clues from a medieval Spanish castle to a lost warren under the streets of Jerusalem, racing against time to unlock the puzzle that will lead them to an arcane power--before a hostile state seizes that power and cripples the United States.

No place is safe, a wrong move means death, and even a simple phone call is off-limits. Because now, the sniper has his sights set on them.

Fans of Dan Brown, Clive Cussler, Steve Berry, and James Rollins will devour the pages of this instant #1 Barnes and Noble Nook bestseller.

If you enjoy extraordinary edge-of-your-seat suspense, you'll stay up late turning the pages of Avanti Centrae's memorable high-stakes novel.
