A treasure lost to time, a string of stolen artifacts, and one archaeologist determined to expose the truth.
The year is 1521, and Tenochtitlán burns. Wracked by plague and war, the majestic Aztec empire begins to crumble. As their beloved capital city falls to the ruthless Spaniards and hordes of vengeful tribes, the Aztecs make a last-ditch attempt to secretly save their heritage before it’s lost to the sands of time forever.
Meanwhile, in the modern day, a string of high-profile robberies lays waste to archaeological sites and museums across Mesoamerica, overshadowed by a brewing nationalistic fervor which threatens to topple already fragile countries. Rumors say the artifacts hold the secret to a legendary Aztec myth - The Seven Cities of Cibola - which has concealed countless treasures for centuries.
Faced with unravelling the mysteries of both the present and the past, aspiring archaeologist Nick LaBounty embarks on a dangerous mission to solve a long-held family mystery and discover the truth behind the stolen artifacts.
He soon finds his fate irreversibly entangled with a civilization from over 500 years ago. But time is running out, and the future of both a fabulous treasure - and all Central America - teeters precariously in the balance.

Narration by Samuel Hoke was perfect. There couldn’t have been anyone who would have done a better job.

What a ride

Another issue I have is the narrator. I buy approximately 150 audiobooks per year and I’ve yet to hear a voice so bad. I’m still not sure the narration isn’t performed by a robot instead of a human. Honestly, he sounds like an actual electronic recording. Very disappointed and a waste of credit.

I did NOT expect the drama (I was hoping for something more like a Cussler action story). The historical POV was mostly as expected, with a little moral preaching that was a blatant appeal to emotion, but over all pretty decent if you don’t mind revisionist history. The current day POV (the bulk of the story) was a frat party drama that was totally unexpected and didn’t really appeal to me much. Not only was there way too much trivial detail and pointless dialogue … which made the story drag significantly (hard to skim over these as an audiobook, but you can tune out a bit). Seriously … we don’t need all of that background for each character dumped on us all at once (and we def don’t need you to repeat it later). I suppose that could be somewhat expected in what amounts to an origin story for the main protagonist, but there are enough tropes throw in that the story comes across as a mechanical paint-by-the-numbers piece that was interesting, but lacked any plot tension to really pull the reader/listener into it.

Could use a little less talk and a lot more action
