Paris, 1957. In the vibrant and intoxicating city of Paris, Gunner, a suave and hedonistic member of the European jet set, embarks on a perilous journey that plunges him into a world of danger and intrigue. When he impulsively pilfers a stone adorned with cryptic hieroglyphics from a mysterious trader, little does he know that his reckless act will set off a cataclysmic chain of events, placing him back on the CIA payroll. Haunted by the secrets veiled within the ancient stone, Gunner delves into a relentless pursuit to unravel the enigma surrounding a priceless artifact dating back to the Spanish Inquisition. As he unearths fragments of the artifact's history, Gunner unwittingly places himself in the crosshairs of a nefarious network of criminals, cunning spies, relentless law enforcement, and even the far-reaching grasp of the Vatican itself. In this gripping tale of suspense, ancient legacies collide with contemporary malevolence, weaving a tapestry of perilous intrigue that will keep readers turning the pages until the heart-stopping finale. The question remains: what will Gunner uncover, and at what cost? The fate of The Treasure of the Damned hangs in the balance, waiting to be unveiled to those who dare to unlock its devastating secrets.
