Subversion in Pompeii

by Douglas Castle

An influx of illegally looted artifacts to the world’s most famous museums prompts the FBI to take action and track down their source. To avoid stirring up tensions with the Italian police, the FBI enlists the services of Argolis Security and Recovery. Lee Colton, distraught over the tragedies from his recent assignments, reluctantly agrees to the job – as the final case of his investigative career.

After Colton goes undercover to investigate the ringleader of this black market trade, Italian authorities soon tag him as a key suspect. From the secret underground tunnels beneath Rome to the sprawling ancient ruins of Pompeii, Colton quickly finds himself a hunted man. With both the police and the looters closing in on him, Colton must race to uncover the shocking reach of this criminal organization before the window closes – and face a final, frantic escape.
