'What is a myth but a truth retold many times over? Atlantis is real!'
Apprenticed to notorious tech-hunter Verity Brown, India Bentley has spent the last year travelling the globe, finding and selling long-lost technology and doing her best to stay out of trouble. Unfortunately, trouble has a habit of finding her.
Accused of an assassination attempt and thrown in jail, India is rescued by scientist-adventurer Professor Moon: a man obsessed with finding the Bloodstone; key to a source of unlimited energy hidden in the lost city of Atlantis. Now Moon wants India and Verity to join his quest.
Pursued by gangsters, lumbered with a stowaway and haunted by the ghosts of her past, India must risk everything to uncover Atlantis's secrets. But the truth comes at a price.
INDIA MUST MAKE THE ULTIMATE CHOICE. THE FATE OF HUMANITY IS IN HER HANDS.
A brand new thrilling adventure-quest in Allan Boroughs' Legend of Ironheart series.
