Locals call it the Rio das Mortes - the treacherous Brazilian river where the Huna tribe is known to kill all who trespass. Despite the river’s deadly reputation, pilot Neil Mallory agrees to fly supplies to outposts there in hopes of making enough money to buy his passage back to England. But when he and fellow pilot Sam Hannah discover a field of massacred missionaries shot through with the Huna’s arrows, they decide to strike out along the River of Death to stage a daring rescue of the two nuns who are missing. Their mission draws them deep into the treacherous jungle, where a final violent showdown with the Huna leads to a fateful decision that will change their lives forever.

I really am fond of Higgins. He always has a good story to tell. And his characters are great.

I noticed several negative reveiws of this book and therefore was tempted not to get it. However, I so much enjoyed the first two books in the series I thought it was worth a chance. Glad I did! Fascinating story. Certainly not plagiarism...in fact refreshingly original. The references to Indiana Jones are tonque in cheek; and the author makes this clear. This is a book about treasure hunters, but not the old-fashioned kind of treasure hunters. The author is a great writer. The story moved along fast, never boring. The main characters are not your standard action heroes and that even makes it more interesting. I am ready and waiting for the next volume in the series!

Extremely well written and fun!

This was a very unusual read. I loved the old biplanes and the look at the Amazon Basin in the early years of European invasion (for lack of a better word). Antagonists abound here. It's not just the Huna, the local natives. Many of the European settlers/explorers who claim partnership as friends are just as dangerous.

Those who enjoy historical fiction, tales from the basin area, or stories about the first days of flight will find much to love in this unique story.
