THE PYTHAGOREAN SOLUTION COMBINES THE HISTORY AND MYSTERY OF THE DA VINCI CODE WITH THE SUSPENSE AND ADVENTURE OF THE BOURNE IDENTITY When American John Hammond arrives on the Aegean island of Samos, he finds Peter Vangelos, a Greek fisherman, lying mortally wounded in an alley. Vangelos hands off a coded map to Hammond, suddenly involving John in a decades old mystery dealing with the whereabouts of a Turkish tramp steamer that sank in a storm in 1945, carrying a fortune in gold and jewels. Also on board this boat, in a waterproof safe, were documents implicating a German SS Officer in the theft of valuables from Holocaust victims and the laundering of those valuables by the Nazis' Swiss banking partner. John, and Vangelos' archaeologist daughter, Zoë, begin a breathtaking and dangerous adventure that leads them to ancient and mysterious archaeological sites on the island of Samos. As they try to decipher a map whose strange code was first developed by the great mathematician Pythagoras, they are pursued relentlessly by people who will do anything to prevent them from finding out the real and unimaginable meaning of the map, which is at the center of this spellbinding novel of suspense and intrigue.
