Secret of the Immortals is a fast-paced Action/Adventure novel based on leading edge science that engages the reader from the very first page. James Leigh, a talented engineer, travels to Mexico for a fishing vacation. After he catches a record Marlin, the fishing boat's owner invites Leigh to his hacienda for a home-cooked meal. There, Leigh notices an ancient stone that is covered with strange engravings on the fireplace lintel.

So begins an amazing quest for a long-lost civilization that existed eons before those of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. Leigh's travels take him from the Utah slickrock desert to the Amazon jungle and in the process he finds love and the stuff of nightmares. Dogged by treasure seekers and a powerful criminal obsessed with living forever, Leigh finds far more than he ever imagined, and a dreaded dream becomes a horrifying reality.

Secret of the Immortals weaves leading edge physics, ethnobotany, genetic engineering, ancient history, and the latest technologies in archaeology into a gripping quest for knowledge and treasure that reaches back to the very beginning of human history. The expedition soon becomes a wild chase of discovery and desperation, with death at every turn. Over the high seas, through desert sands and unexplored rain forest, Leigh and a handful of scientists including a ravishing archaeologist, try to beat relentless adversaries to an undiscovered depository that is the last vestige of a remarkably advanced prehistoric civilization.
