AN ARTIFACT THAT PROMISES WORLD PEACE… BUT AT WHAT COST?

Deep within Cambodia's Angkor Wat, a millennia-old secret is waiting to be unleashed—one powerful enough to build empires and now poised to destroy the world.

THE LOTUS KEY, a long-lost relic with the ability to control millions of minds, has resurfaced. As dark forces converge, its promise of absolute peace comes with an unthinkable cost: the death of free will itself.

EDEN BLACK and her team are thrust into a deadly race across the treacherous Cambodian jungle, battling Khmer Rouge minefields, ancient traps, and ruthless mercenaries, all to stop the Lotus Key from falling into the wrong hands.

But as Eden uncovers the truth behind the artifact, she faces a devastating moral dilemma: Can humanity’s freedom survive the allure of perfect control?



THE LOTUS KEY is a pulse-pounding archaeological thriller that will leave you breathless—and make you question everything you thought you knew about power, peace, and the future of humanity.


I'm currently working on The Lotus Key, Eden Black's sixth archaeological adventure. It should be with you toward the end of 2024.


Initially called The Lotus Code, I've now changed it to The Lotus Key as it suits the story better.

While these books have loads of conflict, chase scenes, fighting and suspense, there's no swearing, sex or gore.
