A novel of peaks, pride, and a hoard that will not stay buried

About this book Available now

A thrilling YA adventure set in the wild mountains of Svaneti in 2028. Mira Solis, a 17-year-old vlogger and climber born in the US to a Georgian mother and Chinese father, arrives at the Stone Tower Lodge to livestream her ascent of Mount Shkhara—just as a sudden snowstorm traps an eclectic group at a timber-and-stone sanctuary below the peaks.

Among them are disgraced treasure hunter Lira Varn, mountaineer Kael Drune searching for his missing daughter, charming professor Tomas Wren with hidden motives, and lodge manager Nia Joradze. Mira's quest for social media fame intertwines with a clandestine search for the lost hoard of King Mirian of Iberia—gold, jewels, and manuscripts hidden during ancient invasions—amid smugglers, spies, and a crashed Russian drone on the tense Svaneti–Russia border.

High-energy adventure meets cultural awakening: friendship, family, identity, and Georgian pride in vivid, accessible prose for young readers.
