A hidden journal. A forgotten treasure. A boy destined to uncover the truth.When 13-year-old Miguel Ángel moves from the sunny coast of Trujillo to the dusty outskirts of Lima, he thinks he's leaving everything behind—his friends, his home, and his father's dreams of archaeology. But a school field trip to the ancient ruins of Pachacamac changes everything. Miguel stumbles upon a mysterious bundle hidden in the walls of the temple—an ancient journal written by Ayar, a messenger from the time of the Inca Empire. Inside are riddles, maps, and secrets that could lead to a treasure lost for centuries. But Miguel isn’t the only one searching. A ruthless criminal is hot on their trail, and the clues are scattered across Peru’s most sacred sites—from the Nazca Lines to Machu Picchu.
