Produktbeschreibung
Life is fairly workaday for Dr Celeste Carlucci, a professor at Krasnia's finest university, until her best friend and colleague Pace involves Celeste in her research. Before long, Celeste is being shot at from a hovering helicopter, attacked on a moonlit mountain path, and followed by shadowy minions - on the trail of the Littoral Codex, an ancient and indecipherable book. The race is on to figure out its secrets. On one side are Celeste and her colleagues, armed with nothing but enthusiasm, brilliant minds, and the principles of geography. Against them are the repressive university governors and their jackbooted campus security guards; the rich and power-hungry Praxicopolis family; and a renegade group of researchers, the Littoral League. Will this ragtag bunch outwit their foes before it's too late?
