Title Alien Legacy Author John C. Macidull Synopsis Yes, thought Pitman, but how does one learn to fly an alien spaceship that has been sitting in a cave for six thousand years? And what about the billions of dollars of pre-Columbian Incan art treasure in the same cave? Amidst the conflicting motives of groups such as the Peruvian drug cartel, present-day Incas, two ruthless U.S. Air Force Operation Blue Book officers, and the Russians, CIA operative Andy Pitman and his brilliant wife, Alexis, become entangled in the deadly world of modern-day espionage, all borne of the lost fortune of the Incan Empire. The Pitmans unravel the conundrum with the help and hindrances of people such as a quiet but dangerous U.S. Navy pilot; the future ambassador to Peru, who has a lust for ancient art; the Russian and U.S. presidents; and an unorthodox U.S. admiral. They are all caught in a relentless web spun by the realities and mysteries of antiquity, warfare, and modern economics. Biography Born in Philadelphia, John C.
