Scotty delves deep into an ancient mystery in the remote island nation of Palau in Micronesia, where archaeologists have discovered the last remaining evidence of a murder: a 3000-year-old skull, severed from its body. Scotty will navigate through the labyrinthine Rock Islands and the complex secret oral histories of Palau in an electrifying search for the murderer of this fallen hero. Evidence will take Scotty through the lush tropical jungle and across brilliant coral seas, to long-forgotten sites of ancient battles and clandestine religious ceremonies, where clues to the practices of warfare and human sacrifice have lain hidden for thousands of years.
