But not just any pilot… NORA "SIERRA" BYRD

After twenty years on the flight deck, Byrd wants nothing more than solitude and her beloved Dakota C-47 Skytrain.

But when a frantic archaeologist appears with an ancient relic—one rumored to unlock the secret to eternal youth—Byrd’s peaceful retirement vanishes in smoke.

A sinister plot involving human experimentation and mass poisoning unfolds… and she’s the only one who can stop it.

With time running out, she must navigate treacherous canyons, evade corrupt officials, and confront a megalomaniac willing to kill to achieve immortality.

From ancient tombs to high-stakes dogfights, Shadow of the Sunstone is an explosive archaeological thriller from Amazon Bestselling authors Luke Richardson and John Hopton.

Perfect for fans of Clive Cussler, Nick Thacker, and Wayne Stinnett. Indiana Jones meets Top Gun—where ancient mysteries and modern danger collide at 10,000 feet.

By the way, buying your paperbacks direct from this store is great for several reasons: the print quality is the best anywhere, it allows me a greater share of the profits, and I get to know who actually bought the books (so I can thank you personally). 

The only catch is that they may take a little longer to deliver, but with printing plants in the UK, US, Canada and Australia, I don't think it'll be more than a few days.

While SHADOW OF THE SUNSTONE has loads of conflict, aerial stunts, chase scenes, fighting and suspense, there's no swearing, sex or gore.
