Here's the set-up:
College student Cassie Forsyth awakens in the middle of the night, shocked by a nightmare in which she sees her sister being murdered. The attacker is a man in a cowboy hat who demands something called “the key.”
The girl’s nightmare becomes real as she is drawn into an underground organization bent on recovering an ancient artifact that has the power to save the world or end it altogether.

All vie to unlock the mysteries of the granite key. The quest leads halfway around the globe to the ruins of a forgotten civilization and a secret it has guarded for millennia. The fate of the world depends on who can get there first.
Forget everything you thought you knew about ancient history. The real facts have been buried. Until now.
