Curse of the Druids

by Aiden James

Long ago, before the myth of Merlin the Magician took root in the annals of time, a sacred amulet named after King Aurelius Ambrosius was said to bridge the mystical chasm between mankind and a race of gods and goddesses residing in the very heart of Britain….

According to legend, the Ambrosius Amulet lays hidden amid the ruins of a predecessor to the inner circle of Stonehenge, known as Bluehenge. As luck would have it, a map leading to this sacred amulet has fallen into the hands of Nick Caine. Belonging to Nick’s lovely cohort, Marie Da Vinci, her deceased father’s final wish was to lay claim to the priceless relic he spent much of his life looking for. His dream—and now Marie’s quest—is for her to locate and procure it for a prestigious museum in Los Angeles.

But there is a problem. Yassir Ali has issued a death warrant for Nick, Marie, and Ishi, after they decided not to share the gold recovered from Sekhmet’s tomb in Egypt. Despite being chased across Europe by hired assassins, the lure of finding this rare amulet—one long believed to be merely mythical—proves impossible to resist. As Yassir Ali’s men close in for the kill, the beleaguered trio soon learns whether tempting fate to pursue a cursed item is worth it. Or, should they have left the Ambrosius Amulet alone?
