An ancient hominin fossil. A narcissistic billionaire. A fight to get it first.

Recruited by the United Nations, Alex and Sam set off on their most dangerous mission yet. Their task - find and retrieve the last remaining fossil evidence that may link humanity with mitochondrial Eve from a death-defying underground cave system in war-torn South Africa!

But the fearless team soon come face to face with the perils of a nation in conflict against each other.

Caught in the crossfire of a country plunged into a historically charged political war, keeping their wits about them and allegiance to their mission are the only things keeping them from being killed. But lurking in the shadows, a narcissistic billionaire with a sinister desire to feed his ego will stop at nothing to steal the fossil. Seeking more than mere power and acclaim, his motives drive him to stop at nothing to get his hands on the relic before anyone else does.

Will Alex and Sam successfully complete their mission and escape South Africa unscathed, or will this be their first mission to leave more harm than good in its wake?

The Alpha Strain is Book 3 in the pulse-pounding Alex Hunt Adventure Thriller series. Based on real facts, an actual excavation, and a true-life fossil discovery, you'll want a long car drive for his one!

i think this is the best of the first 3 books! It can be read as a stand-alone, but best in the order.
Alex and Sam are off on a fast paced adventure. Urcelia has added more twists in this book and I didn't see the end coming! It must have taken a ton of research on all the archaeological facts and the action sequences have you right there with Alex! Highly recommended!

Another great adventure

I don't know how narrators manage to do it but the way they can change their voice to bring so many characters to life is nothing short of amazing! Ms. Texiera has given us another awesome book that really had me wondering if some of the events in this book are true. The story is told with so much emotion over the things that took place at the time that Nelson Mandela was freed from prison. I found the story to be absolutely fascinating! At one point what Alex had to do in her search for the missing molars had me shivering with revolution, I can't imagine doing some of the things she does in order to find the treasures. This is a great story with lots of suspense, mystery, and action. I'm totally ready for more books in the series!
I received a free code from the publisher to listen to this book on Audible. This review is my own honest opinion.

Awesome! Enjoyed every moment!

Government hired Alex and Sam to find the fossil. Finding a billionaire had other plans, not for the fossil but to feed his ego for having it. A good archeological plot, well done.

Well Done
