In 1974, local farmers outside Xi'an, China, discovered an army of more than 8,000 life-sized ancient terracotta warriors buried in a series of pits. Historians believed that the warriors were placed there to guard the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China.
The historians were wrong. The Terracotta Army was there to prevent the evil buried within from ever surfacing again.

Alexander the Great was one of the most successful military leaders of all time, conquering vast realms from Syria, to Persia, and as far east as Taxila, India.
In the process, he stripped his enemies of their immense riches. By the time of his death, he had accumulated the greatest wealth on Earth.
Legend has it, fearing assassination, Alexander had his gold minted into Gold Staters, coins bearing his likeness, before having his most trusted men transport them to a secret location.
Afterwards, to preserve his secret, Alexander had these men poisoned to death.
No sign of Alexander’s treasure was ever discovered.
Now Sam and Tom are on the hunt to find it, and there is much more at stake than mere wealth. . .
An ancient order concealed in shadow.

After the world’s most expensive diamond heist goes wrong, Jack Overton finds himself running from the man who had once been his master - England’s most powerful magistrate of the eighteenth century, Sir Robert Williams. With deep ties to one of the most violent Secret Societies in Europe, the honorable Sir Robert Williams will stop at nothing to catch him.
There are few places in the western world that would harbor such a fugitive, and he finds himself headed for the one place that no one would bother to look: Great Britain’s newest penal colony – New South Wales.
But surviving in the new harsh land is going to be hard for a thief whose only real skill is looking out for his own greedy desires.
Particularly when he meets recently widowed convict Anna Harper, and finds that their lives and destinies are unwittingly entwined.

Lying next to him is a woman with two – execution style – bullet holes to her forehead.
In his right hand he holds a small suitcase. Tucked into his pocket is a Russian built Makarov semiautomatic handgun – with two rounds missing.
The man asks himself one question: Who am I?

Sam Reilly will need to discover what really happened on board the Hoshi Maru – and why all clues point to the Legend of King Arthur…
