The Path of the Four Lions, AJ Treloar

When the armies of the Caliphate close on Alexandria, four guardians risk everything to save a secret the world has forgotten—the body of Alexander the Great. A silent scholar, a desert scout, a Jewish trader, and the last librarian of Alexandria embark on a perilous exodus through fire and sand, hunted by zealots and kings. Thirteen centuries later, buried beneath a forgotten Roman villa, three modern archaeologists uncover their trail—and a mystery powerful enough to rewrite history. From the catacombs of Egypt to the shores of the Red Sea, The Path of the Four Lions fuses ancient intrigue with modern discovery in a sweeping thriller of loyalty, faith, and the war to control the past.
