They kidnapped her father. Now she must face her greatest fear to uncover a truth buried for centuries.

Archaeologist Alex Hunt was never meant to be a hero.

Plagued by crippling agoraphobia and haunted by her mother's mysterious death, Alex has spent years locked away from the world. But when a garbled phone call ends in gunfire and her father—Professor Charles Hunt—goes missing on a dig in East Africa, she has no choice but to confront the past—and the danger that stole everything from her.

Professor Hunt's mission? Prove the legendary Lost City of Rhapta exists.
Alex's mission? Conquer her fear, outwit ruthless treasure hunters, and bring him home alive.

From the moment her boots hit Tanzanian soil, Alex is thrust into a high-stakes race against time, ancient secrets, and a deadly enemy willing to kill for the key to Rhapta's buried past. With the help of Sam Quinn—a jittery academic with secrets of his own—Alex must navigate betrayal, brutal terrain, and cryptic clues her father left behind.

What they find could rewrite history…
What she becomes could change her life forever.

Perfect for fans of Clive Cussler, Tosca Lee, and Indiana Jones-style archaeological thrillers, The Rhapta Key is a pulse-pounding action-adventure with strong female leads, nonstop suspense, and a touch of faith.
