On the cusp of a discovery as profound as the Rosetta Stone, Doctor Emanuel Founder is poisoned and left for dead. Now, with the help of a Navy SEAL whose entire team was destroyed by a rogue Chinese general, Emanuel's daughter must retrace his journey of discovery and danger to unravel the SECRET OF THE THREE GORGES.
