The problem is, they're not the only ones searching, and their rivals are armed and deadly.
In a race against time that spans the length of Britain, and sees Hiram visiting legendary archaeological sites and battling nefarious secret societies, the young student develops a taste for adventure and learns of his innate gift for attracting danger.

Interview with the Author:
Q: So, what makes the Hiram Kane series special?
A: It's a mix of unique factors, really. When I started writing the Kane series I wanted to create books that echoed the kind of books I love to read, so think of action-adventure thrillers a la Clive Cussler & Russell Blake. I set my stories all over the world, which also mirrors my own life as a travel addict and thrill-seeker, and Kane, like me, has a degree in archaeology. Interesting fact; I've visited all the featured locations in the series myself. Unlike Hiram, however, I am not a master of martial arts.
What readers will find are lightning-paced, internationally staged page-turners with real-world events and spectacularly exotic settings. Oh, and a cast of nefarious villains and a genuine action hero.
I like to keep my readers guessing, and there's never a dull moment when Hiram Kane's involved.
Q: Are the books standalone stories?
A: They can be, yes, and can definitely be read independently from each other. But a few of the main characters feature throughout and the story threads all tie nicely together by the last installment. Well, maybe there'll be more ☺
If readers do want to read in the optimal order, I suggest the following sequence:
The Silent Knight
The Golem of Prague
The Tiger Temple
The Samurai Code
The Condor Prophecy
The Shadow of Kailash
The Feathered Serpent
Of Curses and Kings
Q: Why should readers give the Kane books a chance?
A: Because Kane's adventures are page-turning action-fests that pull no punches and would definitely appeal to readers who enjoy tales of real-world issues mixed with despicable bad guys and pulse-pounding action sequences. Oh yeah, the awesome power of Mother Nature plays a significant role in all the books.
I loved writing them ... I'm confident readers will love reading them!
