Book
The lost island : a Gideon Crew novel / Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child.
Gideon is tasked by his mysterious employer, Eli Glinn, with an impossible job - to steal a page from the priceless Book of Kells, on display in NYC and protected by unbreakable security. Gideon steals the parchments, only to learn that hidden beneath the gorgeously illuminated image is a treasure map dating back to the time of the ancient Greeks, showing the location of a mysterious "remedium" or substance that will change the world - and perhaps even save Gideon's life.

The thrillers of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child "stand head and shoulders above their rivals" (Publishers Weekly). Preston and Child's Relic and The Cabinet of Curiosities were chosen by readers in a National Public Radio poll as being among the one hundred greatest thrillers ever written, and Relic was made into a number-one box office hit movie. They are coauthors of the famed Pendergast series and their recent novels include Fever Dream, Cold Vengeance, Two Graves, and Gideon's Corpse. In addition to his novels, Preston writes about archaeology for the New Yorker and Smithsonian magazines. Lincoln Child is a former book editor who has published five novels of his own, including the huge bestseller Deep Storm.
