The Ninth Descent (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798895916032)

What if truth isn't taught... but remembered?

When two treasure hunters are found dead at the bottom of Portugal's mysterious Initiation Well, Myriam is drawn into an investigation unlike anything she has ever encountered.

The brothers had claimed to discover one of history's greatest lost relics.

But before it could be secured, it vanished from a military aircraft in mid-flight.

Joined by hardened Sintra detective Duarte Bezerra and shadowed by a Vatican envoy with secrets of his own, Myriam is pulled into a labyrinth of ancient symbols, sacred architecture, forgotten texts, and encoded patterns hidden deep within the mystical grounds of Quinta da Regaleira.

But this is no ordinary discovery.

It is not something that can be controlled.
It does not yield to force...
Only to the one who stands before it.

As powerful institutions converge-the Church, Science, and Law-each determined to claim it, Myriam is thrust into a race against time before the truth is buried, weaponized... or lost forever.

What she uncovers will change everything:

That reality is not as fixed as it seems.
That perception shapes what is revealed.
And that the final key was never hidden in the world...

...but within.

The Ninth Descent is a metaphysical thriller blending ancient mystery, Templar lore, hidden history, esoteric symbolism, and psychological suspense for readers who love intelligent conspiracy thrillers with spiritual depth.
