    A Montague Cutter Adventure Series

    By Bret Lambert, Bret H Lambert and E.F.L. Tuan

    About this series

    They managed to escape Timbuktu, French Sudan, in one piece.

    Their second adventure has Montague Cutter and Jackson Dillard winging their way east across the Mediterranean Sea in a RAF Dakota ladened with desperately needed medical supplies for the island fortress of Malta. On board is a young RAF officer — a member of the SOE — carrying a locked attaché case.

    Arriving during an aerial dogfight between the British and Italian air forces, they manage to evade disaster and land the battle-damaged Dakota — mostly in one piece.

    On the ground, they find themselves unintentionally involved in the defense of the island. One hundred miles of open sea separates them from Sicily and Mussolini's proud fascist military.

    They also find themselves — once again — involved with Professor Andrei Constantinescu and his daughter Alyxandria as the archaeologists endeavor to locate a relic once belonging to Joseph of Arimathea. Brought to the island stronghold of the Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem by its future Grand Master — Jean Parisot de la Valette — in 1530, the relic disappeared during the Great Siege of Malta in 1565.

    And they are not alone in the search for the venerated artifact.

    They only need to locate the revered relic before an unknown — and thoroughly unpleasant — entity finds it.

    Oh, and survive the current Siege of Malta!

      It's July 1940.   Timbuktu, French Sudan, is under the theoretical control of Free France. With players from Vichy France, Nazi Germany, and fascist Italy tossed into the mix, this ancient city is a no-man's land where life is cheap.   Somewhere in the Sahara, so the legend goes, is the IX Legio Hispana — Rome's Ninth Legion Hispaña — better known to some as the Lost Legion. Sent on a mission by Emperor Trajan in 108AD to find wealth to refill his coffers, the legion vanished into history … and the ever-shifting sands of the Sahara Desert. Montague Cutter just wants to enjoy a simple life away from the strife and horrors of Europe's war, but that is cut short on a hot, dusty day when someone from his past appears in the doorway of Reggie's Oasis.   Alyxandria Constantinescu, daughter of the renowned Romanian archaeologist Andrei Constantinescu, has a simple favor to ask: help her rescue her father from the Nazis and locate an artifact that has been lost for more than eighteen hundred years.   The Nazis, as it so happens, have a personal grudge against Cutter and do not take lightly to his interference in their mission for der Fuhrer. Escaping into the desert with the help of a pair of young local adventurers and a mysterious Tuareg, Cutter and crew begin their perilous quest for the bronze eagle of the Lost Legion … and the wealth that the legion had been sent to find.   But nothing's ever easy and what Cutter and crew stumble across was something even they never expected!
