In a place built for death, one woman fought to save life. An elderly doctor stands before a room of students in a lecture hall. What unfolds is a story of courage, brutality, and survival. When Dr. Gisella Perl is deported to Auschwitz, her medical training becomes the only thing that can keep her alive.

On the wild west coast of Ireland, a neolithic burial chamber is uncovered. Inside, and perfectly preserved, is the image of a fabled Nemean lion and its cub drinking from a bubbling fountain of pure fire. The image matched the one found on an ancient scroll that warned of a Celtic Prophecy. It foretold of an approaching disaster of unimaginable scale hurtling toward the modern world… Sam Reilly needs to solve the Celtic Prophecy and find the fabled Nemean Lions, whose secret may be the only thing that can save his life.

Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin, veterans of many battles, return in this novel to the seas where they first sailed as shipmates. But Jack is now a senior captain, commanding a line-of-battle ship sent out to reinforce the squadron blockading Toulon, and this is a longer, harder, colder war than the dashing frigate action of his early days.... A sudden turn of events takes him and Stephen off on a hazardous mission to the Greek islands. All his old skills of seamanship - and luck when fighting against odds - come triumphantly into their own as the story concludes with some fierce and thrilling action.
