Atlantis Code

While you are waiting for the next book by Dan Brown, try this first novel by Brokaw. Thomas Lourds is an expert in ancient languages. Sent to appear on a television program from Africa, his skills are tested by an ancient bell. He is unable to read the writing on the bell. Before he is able to research further; the bell is stolen and several people are killed. The ancient writing on the bell leads him to a Russian colleague, who has another artifact with the same language. More people are killed in Russia. Lourds is now on the trail of four artifacts that may be related to Atlantis. At the same time there is an archaeological dig taking place in Spain. Could this be the location of the lost continent of Atlantis? The dig is being run by a Catholic priest with funding from a secret group inside the Vatican. Was Atlantis the original Garden of Eden?
