It came at night; silent, relentless, merciless, killing all in its wake.
Over thirty years have passed since a small boy witnessed the devastating destruction of his village near the caldera of Lake Nyos in Cameroon, which he remembers in his horrific childhood memories only as the Smoke Dragon. What seemingly lay buried in his past now threatens to resurface to haunt him and the adopted family that raised him.
After the mysterious disappearance of a shipwreck recovery crew off the coast of Cameroon, a high number of murders become linked to black-market movements of an ancient sarcophagus and a mysterious gem, including those of CIA and MI6 operatives.
A Metropolitan Police enquiry focuses its attention on FortunaCS, a worldwide courier service. However, after the kidnapping of the daughter of its founder occurs, they soon realise that the murders are but a small part of a much larger plot. Soon the police turn to Interpol, MI6 and the CIA as the stakes are raised higher and higher at every turn.
In her darkest hour Isobel Fortuna, the kidnapped daughter of the FortunaCS founder, finds her guardian angel in a form she would least suspect. Yet by her own hand she had already set in motion not only the chance of her rescue but also the opportunity to save the Earth from a devasting disaster.
From London to the Democratic Republic of Congo, Venice to the Mediterranean Sea the police start to unearth a horrifically inhumane quest for revenge, wealth and cold-blooded murder.
What was once remembered as legend, the Smoke Dragon could wake once again and kill hundreds of thousands of people as they sleep in their beds at night; a silent, relentless and merciless killer.
