The Cypriot Mask (Philip Chandler Thrillers)

A priceless mask, a beautiful woman, a deadly secret, and a curse if it doesn't fit Philip Chandler, a small-town Idaho newspaper reporter and owner of the Fremont Herald, thought he landed a front-page scoop interviewing reclusive gun collector Ernest Hardy. Days later, Hardy is brutally murdered, and Chandler is pulled into a dangerous hunt. A beautiful, mysterious woman from L.A., a menacing operative, and a billionaire oil tycoon are closing in, all seeking one thing: the Cypriot death mask. This priceless Bronze Age artifact is rumored to grant its wearer incredible power-but only if the fit is perfect. As the body count rises and Chandler suspects he's being used as bait, he must uncover the mask's deadly secret before a terrible curse claims him, too.
