Summary:
Since the days of Cortés, rumors have circulated about a
lost
city
of immense wealth hidden somewhere in the Honduran interior, called the White
City
or the
Lost
City
of the
Monkey
God
. In 1940, journalist Theodore Morde returned from the rainforest with hundreds of artifacts and an electrifying story of having found the
Lost
City
-- but then committed suicide without revealing its location. In 2012, Preston joined a team of scientists using classified technology that could map the terrain under the densest rainforest canopy. They found evidence of not just an undiscovered
city
but an enigmatic,
lost
civilization -- and returned carrying a horrifying, sometimes lethal -- and incurable -- disease.
