Summary

Transplanted from India to achieve her life-long dream of training to become a research scientist at the prestigious Mount Carmel University in Michigan, Sheila was on top of the world! Added to that she had found the love of her life. Sheila's perfect world is rocked when her new best friend Leslie Wallis commits suicide after she finds that her husband had fathered a child with another woman. But Sheila couldn't believe that of her strong friend. Could Leslie's death have anything to do with the world famous Mount Carmel Organ Transplant Center at which she sometimes volunteered? Instead of a quiet academic life and a safe future in the arms of the man she has come to love, Sheila finds herself thrust into a world of scientific intrigue, avarice and a medical mystery with frightening implications.

    Marcus Sinclair is a history teacher whose life is stuck in neutral when he inherits a papyrus scroll from his antiquarian uncle. The mysterious scroll might contain a lost masterpiece from ancient Rome or perhaps an ancient recipe for personal tranquility, but it’s unreadable unless Marcus can figure out a way to unroll the scroll without destroying it. His quest takes him to Naples, where he befriends a Google software engineer days before the man is found dead. Marcus is interviewed by an investigative journalist, Kristi Grainger, and they find themselves on parallel paths leading to a Neapolitan trafficker in antiquities, a tech mogul obsessed with the distant past, and a clutch of academics searching for the lost library of Herculaneum. In a seaside city that is by turns lush and lethal, Marcus must confront the unraveling of more than a scroll.
		 
This novel is inspired by a real place — the Villa dei Papri, the only library from antiquity to have survived — and coincides with the Vesuvius Challenge, a real-life international competition to decipher Herculaneum scrolls.
