The Meridian Codex

A drug baron: When his daughter is devastated by her boyfriend’s infidelity, he takes a terrible revenge.

A cartel enforcer: A simple mistake starts a domino effect that will have devastating consequences for everyone he knows and many that he’s never even met.

A journalist: When her lover is killed and her friend left for dead, she will do whatever it takes to get justice, regardless of the danger.

A professor of archaeology: All he wants is to be left in peace so that he and his students can follow an ancient Mayan riddle to what might turn out to be one of the most important archaeological finds in decades before the looters move in and destroy it all.

A Federal Police officer: When his daughter is kidnapped, there is nothing he won’t do to get her back safely.

A hit-man: Caught up in the drug lord’s machinations, all he wants is his independence back. But he will do whatever it takes to achieve that.

When these six collide in the Mexican Yucatan, sex and lies, betrayal and revenge will rip their lives apart so that none of them will be quite the same again.
