Book description
FBI agent Sean Reilly and archaeologist Tess Chaykin, heroes of Raymond
Khoury's bestselling Templar novels, return in another edge-of-your-seat
thriller that reaches from present day back to 1700s Mexico - and
possibly beyond. What if there was a natural drug, previously lost to
history in the jungles of Central America, capable of inducing an
experience so momentous - and so unsettling - that it might shake the
very foundations of Western civilization? What if powerful forces on
both sides of the law got wind of that drug and launched a vicious,
uncompromising pursuit to possess it? In Raymond Khoury's
million-copy-selling Templar novels, Reilly and Tess traveled the globe
to unravel ancient mysteries with present-day ramifications. In The
Devil's Elixir, they find themselves dragged into a race - against the
clock, against a brutal drug kingpin known as "El Brujo" - the
sorcerer - and even against government authorities - to merge two
divergent trails, one several hundred years old, the other as current as
a heartbeat, that could drag humanity to the brink of self-destruction.
Packed with the nonstop suspense and unexpected twists Raymond Khoury
fans delight in, The Devil's Elixir is destined for bestseller lists
everywhere. RAYMOND KHOURY is the author of four consecutive New York
