At first, Dr. Gideon Wolf thinks the guy standing in front of him is insane. Ten million bucks for what amounts to a glorified treasure hunt. Ten million dollars, this man offers him, to find a mythical amulet based on, apparently, some maps he printed off the internet and his outsized faith in make-believe.
