Explorer Kurt Raeder has orders from Heinrich Himmler to find an elixir hidden deep in the Tibetan mountains that grants eternal life, and American zoologist Benjamin Hood has orders to stop him. Meanwhile, in contemporary Seattle, a young woman is saved from death by a journalist who claims that her family holds a secret that will save the world.

The publisher is looking for a breakout; with a 75,000-copy first printing.
