Book
The Himalayan codex : an R.J. MacCready novel / Bill Schutt & J.R. Finch.
It is 1946, and the world is beginning to rebuild from the ashes of the devastating war. Captain R.J. MacCready is headed for the Himalayas, to examine some recently discovered mammoth bones. Arriving in Asia, Mac learns the bones are only a cover story. He's really there to investigate an ancient codex allegedly written by Pliny the Elder, a fascinating text filled with explosive secrets. Using the codex as his guide, the deeper he plunges into the unknown, the more certain it appears that Mac and the associates who join his odyssey may not make it out alive.
