Hunt for Atlantis, by Andy McDermott


Ten years after her parents were killed while they were searching for the lost city of Atlantis, archaeologist Nina Wilde decides to continue the search where her parents left off. She believes that she has a good idea where the city is located and wants to prove it. The university where she teaches refuses to fund the expedition however. Billionaire Kristian Frost offers to fund everything however, even giving her two of his own bodyguards, one of them being Eddie Chase, ex SAS officer. The billionaire’s own daughter is also sent to help her. As they travel around the world hunting from clue to clue, they encounter threats and unexpected obstacles. It’s obvious that someone, or something, is trying to kill them. Luckily Eddie is there to save her every time.

This is the first book in the Nine Wilde and Eddie Chase series. Hunt for Atlantis, by Andy McDermott, is a fast paced adventure with some unexpected twists along the way. The book is well written and keep me engrossed in the story from start to finish. I loved the mix of action, adventure and history. I would definitely recommend to anyone who likes a good action mystery. If you like this book you will love the rest of the series.
