In 1966, a group of battle-weary American GIs trekked through the Vietnamese jungle knowing each step could mean facing the enemy's guns. But instead of ambush, they stumbled upon a hidden treasure beyond their wildest dreams. It was a discovery that exacted a terrible cost.

A vacation spot picked at random, Thailand is intended to provide relaxation time for globe-trotting archaeologist Annja Creed. Yet the irresistible pull of the country's legendary Spirit Cave lures Annja and her companions deep within a network of underground chambers—nearly to their deaths. The ancient burial sites have slumbered through the ages. Yet no rest is found there—just the voices of the dead. When the dead speak, will they help Annja uncover the perplexing past of a remarkable find or will they call her to join them?

She was certain he was looking for other passages. She prayed he would find one. The rush of water was loud,

More shots rang out and wood splinters stung her face. The men shouted and raced toward her. She pushed off from the tree and darted toward another thick trunk, barely managing to slip around it before more shots plowed into the vegetation. At least they were concentrating on her. Perhaps Luartaro and Zakkarat were safely away,

up in its intensity, and the soft chatter of the villagers. “Hurry, Zakkarat.” “Hurry? You do not understand tribal life, Ann-ja-creed,” Zakkarat said. “These villages are ancient and remote. You cannot do things quickly here. And you cannot go too slowly because time is not measured in hours, or maybe even days. I doubt anyone here owns a watch.” Annja noted that Zakkarat’s own watch had been broken, too. “Time is measured in seasons and years. And distance? It is not a measure of kilometers or

Please thank him for me. And please remember to tell all of these people about the men and the guns and—” The wind gusted, bringing a shower of rain inside the building. Thunder boomed and beyond the doorway fingers of lightning flickered. The dog yapped shrilly. A single burst of gunfire sounded. A
