Rise Reviews

Archaeologist Shep Smythe has based his entire career on proving that Cleopatra was murdered. He goes to Mexico after a statue of Cleopatra is unearthed at an Olmec dig site. Instead of finding proof of his theory, he gets caught between Victoria Kent, a famous international thief, and Dmitri Kronastia, a Russian mobster nobody wishes to cross.

Victoria has stolen rare, priceless items from the dig site, including any proof Shep may have been able to use in proving that Cleopatra was murdered. Dmitri must find those items before it’s too late – Dmitri and Victoria are part of an ancient world of gods, the supernatural and history. Shep must help Dmitri find Victoria and the artifacts, and put together the puzzle that will prevent the end of the world on 12.21.12.
