Story
"Greetings from the dead," declares Maxwell Broadbent on the videotape he left behind after his mysterious disappearance. A notorious treasure hunter and tomb robber, Broadbent accumulated over a half a billion dollars' worth of priceless art, gems, and artifacts before vanishing—along with his entire collection—from his mansion in New Mexico. At first, robbery is suspected, but the truth proves far stranger: As a final challenge to his three sons, Broadbent has buried himself and his treasure somewhere in the world, hidden away like an ancient Egyptian pharaoh.

The story is short with a simple plot. The narrator is good. If you need a quick listen this is a fine choice.

I love this series. Great writing. Great narration. Great story. I can’t wait for the rest of the series. I read this book years ago but the narrator kept the story new and interesting.

It’s a good book but the plot is simple. The narrator is wonderful and made the experience entirely entertaining.

Another wonderful book by Olson. It rate her with the likes of Kim Harrison and Jim Butcher. Great story, pace and narration I just wish that they were longer.
