The Lost Key of Alexandria

Writing from the shores of Bosporus, Turkish author Erkut Erdogan is revealing not only historical facts but also universal greediness... "For a moment he felt a bizarre and unusual burning inside him. He had mixed feelings. He thought of how he spent his years chasing the dream of turning metal into gold, the death of his sons and how he was now left all alone. He drank up the wine in the bowl, and screamed out every single curse he could think of. "Take it all! Indulge yourself in gold! Don't let our sons die anymore! Let the Kings' land swarm with gold!" "When taking the grain carrying ship out of the harbour in all its glory, the captain didn't know that the caravaneer was a very rich man, who had accepted this hard work to escape all his woes. He was also unaware that the burden this new crew member was carrying (the figurine was his only connection to his past) was a key to the history of mankind."
