As part of a campaign of arson intended to mask a far more diabolical design, buildings across Europe are being devoured by infernos of unnatural strength. Born from the ashes is a new Eastern European nation whose ruthless leader will soon draw Cotton into an intense geopolitical chess game against a shadowy cabal of power brokers. The prize lies buried with the mummified remains of Alexander the Great--in a tomb lost to the ages for more than two thousand years. Trekking from Denmark \u003cbr\u003e to Venice to Central Asia, Cotton and Cassiopeia are determined to solve an ancient puzzle whose solution \u003cbr\u003e could destroy or save millions of people--depending on who finds the lost tomb first. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e \"There's nothing tastier than a globe-spanning mystery. . . .
