Some treasures are best left buried . . .
Scuba diving off the Tanzanian coast, husband-and-wife
treasure-hunting team, Sam and Remi Fargo discover a huge ship's bell,
covered in cryptic carvings. But as they struggle to first recover the

wanting to discover its secrets.
When news of the find is publicised, Mexican President Quauhtli
Garza is forced to act. He knows that this bell comes from a former
Confederate ship that sank off the African coast and he fears that the
discovery of a missing piece of a Quetzalcoatl statuette, which was
aboard the ship, will undermine his plans for Mexico's future.
With Garza determined to stop the Fargos investigation at all costs,
the couple are drawn into a deadly conspiracy that connects the 1883
Krakatoa explosion with an attempt to resurrect the fallen Aztec
empire ...
