In their fourth adventure Edinburgh archaeologist Philip Trevasco, and Rosalind Bernaud, an Australian artist, travel to Kandahar in Afghanistan. What they learn from the excavation and a ring guide them to King Euthydemus of ancient Bactria. How are the destinies of Alexander's veterans and the Scythian tribes linked? Cultures clash in the ancient and modern stories: from Buddhist Gandhara to Soviet Russia. Can the lovers protect Sanctuary from new barbarians in a time of war?

Chris has written much of this book from personal experience. Born in Stafford, England, he studied Archaeology and Fine Art at Edinburgh University. During the 1970s Chris worked on sites in Italy, Cyprus, Turkey and Iran. His last dig was at old Kandahar in Afghanistan, just before the Russian invasion. It is this excavation life that he has reworked into historical fiction. Chris has taught Ancient History, English and Philosophy in Brisbane, Australia. Along the way he completed post graduate diplomas in Russian (Glasgow), Teaching (London) and a degree in Journalism (Brisbane). After raising two sons he and his wife now live in the hills north of Brisbane.
