FBI Special Agent A.X.L. Pendergast always wants to protect his protegee Constance Greene from harm. But, against all odds, Constance has found a way to travel back in time to New York City in the late 1800s to embark on a dangerous quest: to stop the era's most infamous serial killer, Dr. Enoch Leng from bringing his plans to fruition. If she does, she can finally prevent the events that led to the shocking deaths of her sister and brother. Meanwhile, in present-day New York, Agent Pendergast is desperate to reunite with Constance before she gets stuck in the past forever..

Pendergast parviendra-t-il à regagner indemne le XXIe siècle ? Dans le New York des années 1880, Constance Greene n'a pu déjouer les plans du Dr Leng, le premier serial killer de l'histoire de Manhattan. Pas plus que l'inspecteur Aloysius Pendergast n'a su empêcher le savant diabolique de commettre un nouveau forfait. Leng croit avoir gagné la partie, mais il ignore que Diogène, le frère psychopathe de l'inspecteur, a suivi son aîné et qu'il rôde désormais dans les rues du quartier de Five Points.

Le corps étrangement momifié d'un homme est retrouvé dans une ville fantôme du Nouveau-Mexique. À son côté : une croix en or du XVIIe siècle datant de l'ère coloniale espagnole. L'archéologue Nora Kelly et Corrie Swanson, jeune agente du FBI, doivent déterrer l'homme pour l'identifier, déterminer les causes de sa mort et rechercher un éventuel trésor enfoui...

In Colorado near the Cheyenne Mountains, a team of topflight engineers venture on an ambitious cross country ski trip, using their newly invented outdoor equipment. The strapping group of young people are having the adventure of their lives—skiing, laughing, playing in the snow, and mugging for the camera. But when the gang was expected to arrive back from their trip—no one ever returned. Nora's excavation skills and Corrie's investigative talents are put to the test as they try to uncover what happened to the promising skiers on this cold and isolating mountain.

Forced to leave her post at the Santa Fe Archaeological Institute, Nora Kelly is left without a job and without any prospects. So when billionaire Lucas Tappan invites her to lead his excavation of the infamous Roswell landing site, she has no choice but to make a decision that could destroy her reputation. Armed with a healthy dose of scepticism, Nora reluctantly agrees to visit the site. When the preliminary scans of the area reveal a suspected Native American burial site, Nora takes a closer look.
