Publisher's summary
Indiana Jones' luck has finally run out. In 1941, he's stuck in a jail in Puerto Bolivar, Ecuador. When the U.S. Army comes knocking with a official release, Indy knows they'll want something big from him in exchange — like cracking the mystery of the fabled Hall of Records — a treasure trove that, legend says, allows you to read the future
On this adventure, Indy will not only have to outsmart and outmaneuver his enemies, he'll also have to figure out who his enemies are — because spies and traitors are gunning for him at every turn!
