The Descendant (a Joshua Files prequel)

An ancient burial chamber is found in Iraq, near the ruins of Eridu, the oldest city in the world. The discovery remains a secret, guarded by a US government intelligence agency. Who will be the first to unlock its power? Can anyone save the world from a cosmic catastrophe that no-one but a long dead civilization could foresee? 'The Descendant' laid the foundation for the best-selling series, 'The Joshua Files'.
