It's the greatest archeological mystery in the world, a race to find the incomprehensively rich tomb of the greatest warrior/conqueror the world has ever known, and two teens stumble into the cryptic search. It's a history mystery, with a mix of offbeat espionage. But for naïve and hapless Rick Foster, he's after solving the biggest mystery of all - the massive puzzlement of girls. Jill MacGregor is his supreme focus. Tossed together by fate, they mesh with their international friends attending an American High School in Ankara, Turkey in the mid 1960s. They live in the ancient land of Alexander the Great and the Crusaders. But now, it's a groovy but tense time in their cold-war world. Teen life overseas is far-out different than anything happening far away in the U.S. But they dig it.
Rick Foster knows the rules, he just hasn't a clue about the consequences of breaking them. Jill MacGregor is worth every unknown cost in his eyes even though girls in general are an incomprehensible enigma all on their own. Jill embraces but twists Rick's goofy lie he fabricates to impress her and lands them both as prisoners in the Russian embassy. All which convinces Jill to pull Rick into her own set of dire complications. To maintain his deceit and retain Jill's wavering interest, Rick concocts a series of international capers for Jill and their friends, plunging them into additional trouble and shenanigans. But her own problems twist them in new directions. Jill must find a vast hidden fortune, her secret inheritance. Can she trust Rick, the awkward liar, to help? She must decipher her deceased grandfather's cryptic instructions, intertwined with his search for the lost tomb, or her vast inheritance will be lost forever.
This fictional tale has an air of authenticity as it is based on a memoir from the seasoned writer, having lived in Turkey in those turbulent times. Danger 9b and his Goddess of Fortune is an historic fiction mystery combined with a light romantic comedy and mixed with action/adventure drama, weaving history, culture and coming-of-age teen antics into a wild tale of intrigue and discovery.
