Both teenagers soon uncover concealed inscriptions whose obscure meanings draw them together at the intersection of a wealthy banker's mysterious death, a million-dollar gold heist and the exploits of a French jewel thief and a Corsican pirate on the Mediterranean Riviera. The Golden Inscriptions offers a thrilling adventure spanning half a century, half the globe and untangling the riddle of turning lead into gold.
