"A key. An ancient automaton. A race against the devil to the deep blue sea ... It started in 48 B.C. when a centurion on a rescue mission for Caesar went down with the ship in a storm. With his last breath, he saw the object of Caesar's seafaring excursion—an accursed, mechanical Minotaur—hit bottom ... and start to walk away! The quest for the key and the mythological automaton reunites Annja, Garin and his old mentor Roux in Genoa, and pits them in a race across Europe to beat a foe as resourceful and skilled as Annja herself." — Excerpted and quoted from this book's product page on Amazon.com as of 2013-10-31.
