Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Leyendas apaches, minas abandonadas y experimentos secretos en la segunda entrega de la nueva serie de Preston & Child que mezcla arqueologia, historia, asesinato y suspense. Corrie Swanson, joven agente del FBI, se enfrenta al descubrimiento de un cuerpo momificado en High Lonesome, un pueblo minero de Nuevo Mexico abandonado hace mucho tiempo. El cadaver se encuentra en posicion fetal, el rostro presenta un rictus terrorifico y entre sus ropas se oculta una cruz de oro y piedras preciosas. El extrano hallazgo plantea muchas preguntas y Corrie solicita la colaboracion de la doctora Nora Kelly en la excavacion. El fallecido se llamaba Jim Gower y solia merodear por el pueblo en busca de reliquias de los indios originarios de la zona y de los conquistadores espanoles que llegaron despues. Corrie localiza al unico descendiente del muerto, Jesse Gower, que reclama la propiedad de la cruz de oro y afirma que antes de dedicarse a buscar objetos antiguos, Jim Gower habia sido propietario de un rancho a pocos kilometros de High Lonesome, que le expropio el gobierno. La investigacion concluye que Jim Gower murio alrededor de 1945, envenenado. Entretanto, la doctora Kelly ha identificado uno de los objetos hallados junto al cadaver, se trata de una bolsita de hierbas con propiedades medicinales, como las que usaban los apaches.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom #1 bestselling authors Preston & Child comes a thrilling novel following archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson as they work together to solve a twisted crime that reaches far beyond any of their worst fears. Following the acclaimed debut of Old Bones, this second "happily anticipated" new thriller in Preston & Child's series features Nora Kelly, archaeologist at the Santa Fe Archeological Institute, and rookie FBI Agent Corrie Swanson, as they team up to solve a mystery that quickly escalates into nightmare (Booklist). A mummified corpse, over half a century old, is found in the cellar of an abandoned building in a remote New Mexico ghost town. Corrie is assigned what seems to her a throwaway case: to ID the body and determine cause of death. She brings archaeologist Nora Kelly to excavate the body and lend her expertise to the investigation, and together they uncover something unexpected and shocking: the deceased apparently died in agony, in a fetal position, skin coming off in sheets, with a rictus of horror frozen on his face. Hidden on the corpse lies a 16th century Spanish gold cross of immense value. When they at last identify the body -- and the bizarre cause of death -- Corrie and Nora open a door into a terrifying, secret world of ancient treasure and modern obsession: a world centered on arguably the most defining, frightening, and transformative moment in American history.
