The Tooth That Time Forgot
Description
The find of a lifetime might cost this college professor his life.
When Richard Calhoun finds a fossilized human molar during a dig in the Canadian Rockies, he's sure he's made the discovery of his career.
Until the lab reveals that the tooth is 23,500 years old.
The news throws Calhoun's professional colleagues into an uproar. His colleagues insist that humans didn't arrive in the Americas before 12,500 years ago, when the last glaciers melted. They dismiss Calhoun's find as a fake and accuse him of being an imposter.
His superiors at his college warn him not to rock the academic boat. Tabloid reporters make him famous as the discoverer of the Missing Link, which just makes Calhoun a target for those who want to discredit him. Not only does Calhoun's ne'er-do-well brother try to make a profit from the discovery, but the Canadian government threatens legal action for removing an indigenous artifact.
The find of a lifetime is going to cost Calhoun his career, and maybe his life...unless he can prove he's right against all the forces working to silence him.
A thrilling mystery from the author of The Last Voyage of the Marigold and Escape on the Silk Road, early readers are calling this a fascinating read and Moore's best writing yet.
