What if you watched your
mother mysteriously vanish in an ancient tomb? What if you discovered
that your father was not who he seemed to be? What if the worst day of
your life began your life's greatest adventure?
Meet Nikko Zond, a hyper-intelligent but rebellious teenager still
mourning the death of his renowned archeologist mother and a virtual
stranger to his workaholic father, Solomon. On the day Nikko gets
kicked out of the latest in a long line of boarding schools, he
discovers his father's career as a university professor is just a
cover. Solomon is really head of the Veritas Foundation, whose agenda
is to seek the truth behind the mysteries of history and civilization.
Teaming up for the first time with his father, Nikko finds his
parents' spirit of adventure clearly runs in his blood, as he
inadvertently gets entangled in his dad's dangerous adventures. Soon,
and against his father's better judgment, Nikko enters the high tech,
classified world of Veritas and begins the adventure of his lifetime —
a journey that will lead to the unlocking of universal mysteries and,
hopefully, will bring him and his emotionally estranged father back
together.
The Veritas team includes: The highly intelligent and mysterious
Vincent Siminou, Solomon's closest confidant and protector; Calvin
Banks, a high strung but brilliant by-the-books archaeologist; and
Maggie, a cool and sophisticated computer scientist. And charged with
the difficult task of trying to keep Nikko out of trouble is Juliet
Droil, a beautiful and brilliant former student of his father's who
will be Nikko's tutor and friend.
From an excavation site of the pre-Roman civilization of Ancient Gaul
to the North Pole, there is no place to which the Veritas Foundation
will not venture in their mission for the truth. But a secret
nefarious organization, seeking to destroy the Foundation's research,
will never be far behind.
