The war may be over, but the hunt has just begun.
Lorens van Norreys, heir to the House of Norreys, is chasing a lost treasure. Former OSS agents Lawrence Kane and Sam Marusaki are searching for an American flyer still missing in action. Their separate quests collide in the thousand islands of Indonesia, where ruthless pirates, Nazi fugitives, and whispered legends make every step a deadly gamble.
As their search leads them to an island known only as the Forbidden Place—uncharted, filled with mystery, and rumored to be inescapable—they face an enemy unlike any they’ve encountered before. To survive, they must unravel the secrets of the past before becoming just another piece of its dark history.
A thrilling blend of fantasy and adventure from SFWA Grand Master and New York Times–bestselling author Andre Norton.
