Bel Nemeton

A globe-trotting quest for the treasures of the historical Merlin.

From the Preditors and Editors Readers' Poll Award-Winning Author Jon Black...

Carvings have been unearthed in the Middle East. They bear impossible names--Arthur and Merlin, albeit in a native transliteration. How did these names come so far? Do they imply the existence of a historical Arthur and Merlin? The scholars do what they always do. They arrange a press meeting.

But scholars aren't the only attendees. After heavily-armed mercenaries steal the stone, Dr. Vivian Cuinnsey is forced to work with Jake Booker, a self-professed treasure hunter. Can he be trusted? Or is he just one more force after Merlin's treasure for personal profit?

From the Middle East to the caves of Israel to German record rooms to Oxford's secret underworld, chase Vivian and Jake in their pursuit of Merlin's greatest treasure.
