Tears of the Gods William Kerr

TEARS OF THE GODS A necklace of black pearls known as the Tears of the Gods, its origin from the time of Cortés and Mexico's Aztec nation; a deadly curse against those who might possess the pearls; a desire for power and riches by one woman willing to summon the full wrath of the curse against those who would stand in her way. These elements combine to produce a nightmare of deception, murder and a terrifying journey into the unknown. Best-selling author William Kerr's tenth offering in the Matt Berkeley suspense/ thriller series finds Berkeley, former Navy Special Warfare officer and security expert in the field of archeology, once again paired with Lieutenant Polly Bartelow of the Jacksonville, Florida Sheriff's Office. From Florida to Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and the resort city of Cancún, they must confront not only human greed and a grab for political power, but a mysterious force that neither can identify. A yacht adrift in the Gulf of Mexico, its crew dead; an underground river in which Matt and Polly must fight for their lives; and finally, a secret tunnel where they find themselves matched against a killer determined to fulfill the curse of the black pearls. Such are the ingredients for another Matt Berkeley, page-turning adventure
