LORDS OF SIPAN

In 1987 when Ernil Bernal happened upon an unusually rich find in the ancient temple of Sipan, Peruvian archaeologist Dr. Walter Alva, U.S. Customs, and the underground network of dealers in pre-Columbian artifacts all battled for the remains. They occasioned a fascinating, but true, mystery filled with personal courage and deceit. Reader John McDonough adopts a scholarly tone that is alive with intimacy and intrigue. The burred roughness of his voice grips the reader and brings to the text all the toughness and tenacity of Dr. Alva as he fights to recover Peru's past.
