    About this audiobook

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    When a wealthy collector named Hugh Overton travels to Peru, he becomes obsessed with acquiring an ancient ceramic jug depicting a Mochican warrior on a llama. He locates the rare treasure, but exporting antiquities is illegal. Desperate to own this prize piece, Overton hatches a risky smuggling plot. But a suspicious customs inspector and Overton's archeologist friend stand in the way, threatening to crush the collector’s dreams and land him in serious trouble. Will his craving for artifacts override his common sense?
