"The action just keeps on coming ... Michael Crichton meets Indiana Jones." Kirkus Reviews Deep in the jungle of Peru, the hunt for a legendary Incan idol is under way - an idol that in the present day could be used as the basis for a terrifying new weapon. Guiding a US Army team is Professor William Race, a young linguist who must translate an ancient manuscript which contains the location of the idol. What they find is an ominous stone temple, sealed tight. They open it - and soon discover that some doors are meant to remain unopened... Fans of Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy and Michael Crichton will love Matthew Reilly. PRAISE FOR MATTHEW REILLY "Reilly has a gift for sustaining momentum that never lets up." Publishers Weekly "Compared to Matthew Reilly's Temple and his intrepid academic hero, Professor William Race, Indiana Jones is a wimp and The Raiders of The Lost Ark a snooze fest. Reilly's book has adrenaline in super-sized quantities." The Orlando Sentinel
