The Atlantis Codes

A thrill-seeking Harvard linguistics professor and an ultrasecret branch of the Catholic Church go head-to-head in a race to uncover the secrets of the lost city of Atlantis. The ruins of the technologically-advanced, eerily-enigmatic ancient civilization promise their discoverer fame, fortune, and power... but hold earth-shattering secrets about the origin of man. While world-famous linguist and archaeologist, Thomas Lourds, is shooting a film that dramatizes his flamboyant life and scientific achievements, satellites spot impossibly ancient ruins along the Spanish coast. Lourds knows exactly what it means: the Lost Continent of Atlantis has been found. The race is on, and Lourds' challengers will do anything to get there first. Whoever controls the Lost Continent will control the world. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

MANKIND HAS HAD 12,000 YEARS TO DECIPHER THE MESSAGE, WE HAVE ONE WEEK LEFT.... There is a signal emanating from deep within the ice of Antarctica. Atlantis has awoken. Ancient monuments all over the worlds from the Pyramids of Giza, to Mexico to the ancient sites of China are reacting...to a brewing crisis not of this earth, but somewhere out in the solar system. Connecting to each other through the oceans. Using low frequency sound waves to create an ancient network. The earth is thrown into panic stations. For it seems that the signals emanating from Atlantis are a prelude to something much greater. Could it be that the entire city is in fact one giant ancient machine? And to what end? For what purpose? It is the year 2012, the same year Mayan belief prophesised the end of the world. Two armies, American and Chinese stand on the brink of war for the control of the most potent force ever known to man. The secrets of Atlantis. Secrets which are encoded in crystal shards retrieved from the sunken city. Secrets which Mankind has had twelve thousand years to decipher...but which will now destroy it within one week.

La quête archéologique la plus meurtrière de l’Histoire... « Jadis, il y avait une immense puissance qui marchait insolemment sur l'Europe et l'Asie tout entières, venant d'un autre monde situé dans l'océan Atlantique... Dans l'espace d'un seul jour et d'une seule nuit néfastes, tout ce que vous aviez de combattants fut englouti d'un seul coup dans la terre, et l'île Atlantide, s'étant abîmée dans la mer, disparut de même... » Platon, Timée Le Pr Thomas Lourds, éminent linguiste, reçoit pour mission d’expertiser un objet vieux d'environ vingt mille ans. Il s’agit d’une cloche, qui comporte une inscription gravée dans des caractères archaïques et que Lourds attribue à la langue des habitants de l’Atlantide ! Lorsqu’une consœur russe trouve la mort après avoir déchiffré des symboles analogues sur une cymbale, Lourds comprend que la portée de leurs découvertes n’est pas uniquement scientifique. Beaucoup veulent empêcher que l’on prouve l’historicité de cette civilisation mythique, et notamment un groupe de mercenaires, obéissant aux ordres d’un cardinal dévoyé. Car d’Alexandrie à Moscou, de Rome à Cadiz, cette quête folle sur les traces du continent perdu pourrait conduire Lourds et ses alliés à percer les secrets des origines du christianisme...
