Description

Underwater archaeologist Jack Howard is back with a mission to uncover a shocking secret that could rewrite history. In 1890, a British soldier emerged from a Cairo sewer, claiming to have been trapped for years in an ancient underground complex and discovering a vast collection of gold, treasure, and thousands of jars filled with papyri. Dismissed as a madman who had lost his mind in the desert, the soldier's story was thought to be lost forever. However, when a colleague stumbled upon the soldier's account, mentioning a 'blinding shaft of light', Jack's attention was caught and he became determined to find out if there was truth to the tale. With the political situation in Egypt at boiling point, Jack and his team embark on a treacherous archaeological expedition across the globe, down to the darkest depths of the Red Sea, and back through Egyptian history to uncover the devastating secret kept by Akhenaten, the Sun-Pharaoh.
