A German property developer, Hans Hoffmann, revels in the belief he has discovered the key to unleashing the weapon responsible for sinking Atlantis. Hoffmann requests the help of Cambridge archaeologist, Dr John Hunter to validate his mysterious find. Hunter's acceptance leads the maverick academic on a journey from the headquarters of a clandestine organisation in England, to a lost city in the heart of the Brazilian Rainforest, and climaxes inside a chamber hidden deep beneath Egyptian Heliopolis. Pioneering theory is spliced by epic battles, daring escapes, and elaborate schemes aimed at unravelling a secret history hidden from humanity for the past twelve thousand years.
Atlantis is a very visual word. A word evoking mystery, forgotten realms, underwater palaces… the list goes on. I find this Plato inspired concept of Atlantis fascinating and read anything and everything I can lay my hands on. The theories are diverse and range from the feasible to the outlandish but certain concepts kept reoccurring. The Atlantis Deception takes the ideas of accepted and alternative theory, weaving them together to create a feasible universe where our past still dictates our future.
The novel follows the trials and tribulations of a fictional Cambridge academic, Dr John Hunter. The focus is not on Atlantis itself, but rather on what happened to its people it the wake of the loss of their homeland. The Atlantis Deception is a classic action adventure tale with heroes, villains, shadowy organisations and self-serving plots, each of them underpinned by progressive archaeological theory. The novel is written with the aim of both exciting and making readers think in equal measure. Although imagined, many of the conclusions the characters reach are cutting edge and described in such a way so as to blur the line between fact and fiction.

Book arrived last week, lovely! Good holiday reading for us both. No sign of the print yet, is it due soon?
Hi Janet, Thank you so much and that's great news. I've been having a few problems with Amazon otherwise I would have sent everyone a full update. I delayed, hoping for it to coincide with the full release of the ebook. No idea why, but Amazon has delayed it for two weeks post (what should have been) publication. It terms of the prints - they are ready to go but Unbound have not yet released the addresses to me. I understand I have to sign a data protection agreement first which I am hoping will be with me by the end of the week. Once the addresses are released I will send out all the prints. I am really sorry for the delay. Thank you so much again for your support and understanding. I will be in touch. Kind regards Mark
Everything has arrived now, thank you. Loved the book read in Barbados! Looking for a frame for the print, excellent!
Thank you so much, Janet. I'm glad you enjoyed it - although I'm sure your surroundings must have helped! I can't believe it's finally published and available! No pressure, but if you fancy writing a quick couple of words on Amazon, I would be very grateful. As I understand it, Amazon won't recognize it as a viable book until it has had 50 reviews! https://amzn.to/2OFpZuI Thank you again for all your support. Kind regards Mark
Link wouldn’t work but I think I managed it. Good luck. Janet
That's brilliant! Thank you so much and have a great Christmas. Kind regards Mark
