CIA Cryptographer--connecting the dots to top-secret international plots before they happen. But when he discovers the savage murder of his mentor . . . everything changes. Donovan is thrust from the safety of his protected CIA office into the real world for the first time, overmatched and unprepared. He has no survival skills--except one: His razor-sharp ability to piece together deadly puzzles from clues that seem to have no connections. Forging a desperate alliance with British hieroglyphics expert Teppy Flynn, they plunge into a mystery that has claimed lives for thousands of years: the relentless quest for the legendary Alchemist Gold Formula-- the promise to transform ordinary metal into pure gold. Now, closing in on the ultimate prize, they're trapped in a race against rival governments, deadly mercenaries, private armies and unscrupulous billionaires who will stop at nothing to get it. Only Donovan and Flynn stand between humanity and economic oblivion, unless they can solve the puzzle of the ages first.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTHE MIDAS TOUCH\u003c\/i\u003e hurls readers through a gauntlet of relentless danger and spine-tingling suspense across all four corners of the globe.
