Gerald Wilkins had only been hoping for a ski holiday, but
plans change when a great aunt he’s never met leaves him her
entire estate (worth twenty billion pounds!). Whisked by his

Now he’s got a mystery to solve. With the help of his new

crypt and a colossal cavern where the secret of a priceless treasure
lies protected by deadly booby traps.
