Summary
Da Vinci’s greatest and most
dangerous legacy In the midst of a lovers’ quarrel on a
Venetian bridge, a pair of art thieves loses a priceless,
stolen Lorraine cross to the canal’s murky waters.
Suspecting a connection between the cross, Joan of Arc and da
Vinci, Annja Creed’s former mentor, Roux, sends the
archaeologist to oversee the search for the missing artifact.
But someone else knows about the cross knows enough to kill for
it. Despite several vicious attacks during their underwater
expedition, Annja and Roux’s hired diver recovers the
cross. But when the diver’s loyalties are called into
question and he disappears - along with the treasure - Annja is
certain there’s more to the ancient object than Roux is
letting on. She soon discovers the cross is only one piece in
an intricate enigma - a key that, when combined with a series
of musical notes, may unlock one of Leonardo da Vinci’s
most fantastical inventions. But the price Annja must pay to
stop this key from falling into the wrong hands may be her
life.
