The Nemesis Origin (Warner & Lopez Book 1)
It’s the greatest secret in history: mankind should not be here yet…
In an ancient tomb high in the Peruvian Andes, the remains of a bizarre humanoid form is unearthed by explorers who swiftly vanish without trace. In response, America’s Defense Intelligence Agency sends a former operative on a new mission, to discover the lost secrets of humanity’s past before Russian agents can make it to the scene.
Ethan Warner wants only to be left alone, but his connections to the agency make him the perfect operative for the mission. His hand forced, he is hurled into a global conspiracy that will take him from the deep waters of the East China Sea to the sweltering jungles of Cambodia, from the deserts of Egypt to the soaring heights of the Andes mountains. There, amid the ruins of countless ancient cities, lays the beginning of the origin of life itself, and it’s far older than anyone believed possible.
