The couple always finds something interesting to do with their lives all the time. Sam and Remi are summoned by an oil baron this time as his father has gone missing and the locals have no trace of the old man.
Sam and Remi though never hunted men before as their specialty are treasure finding, agree for the job just for sake of change which they like. When they reach the place they come to know that the previous investigator on the case has also vanished from the scene.
Thus the case appears to be tougher than they expected and as one clue after the other opens the things start going out of their hands because they never expected that to happen in a simple kidnap case. They are forced to go on a world tour that takes them to Nepal, Tibet, India and China not for the search of the two missing person but on a hunt of an old puzzle chest that can change the course of the world within no time.
The imaginative skills of Clive Cussler and Grant Blackwood are tested in the scenes where the talk about skeleton and the Kingdom of Mustang. It’s the evolution of the human race that hangs in balance this time for the Fargos who never back down from a challenge.
We can see their zealous nature in The Tombs and The Mayan Secrets and other parts of the same series. Scott Brick is also getting better at each step because now he knows the character just like the writer and thus can portray them in the right way. In the first two parts there was also a kind of haste in the narration but now its done in a cool and calm manner and that’s why it is easily understandable.
