PROLOGUEI had been a professional detective for 12 years, yet this was the most peculiar and mysterious case, I had faced in my professional career. My career was at stake here. If I was able to solve this one, it would be like winning a medal and attaching it, to my resume, on the contrary, if I failed, I would be dead; as this case was literally a life or death situation to all the brave men who have been involved with it, in the past.The President of the United States had called for a meeting. A team of 12 archaeologists, historians and researchers had been formed to search for and safely bring home a rare blue sapphire, measuring 1 foot diagonally and weighing 300 carats, so beautifully cut and radiating such royal blue light that anyone who saw it at first glance, would fall in love with it. It was believed to be a gift of the Gods. It was supposed to be a wedding anniversary gift for Goddess Persephone by Greek God of the Underworld Hades and such a treasure was then under the possession of some notorious pirates of the Caribbean and was finally hidden by a pirate named Barbados beside an oak tree deep under the ground, in one of the most active volcanic islands of the Caribbean also known as the Mysterious island of Oblivion. Legend has it, that whoever has been to that island, has never returned alive. It was an island of no return. An island of Oblivion.Many historians are of the opinion, since the remarkable blue sapphire, had been buried on the island, the island gained such a terrible name for itself, for the blue sapphire was cursed in a way, as it was stolen from its original owners who were God Hades and Goddess Persephone. Some experts also say that whoever possessed the remarkable blue sapphire, death and destruction would come his way for sure. But this was the 21st century. A modern era with scientific and technological advancements paved the way for a new and modern thinking of life. It had no place for old myths and fairy tales. It was a age of science so there was no stopping this American team of 12. Equipped with the latest gadgets, instruments, measuring devices and equipment all that can be used for archaeological excavations and scientific investigations, and a huge support from the government of the United States, this team had set out on their target of bringing the remarkable blue sapphire of the Gods to American soil, to be kept safely at their American Museum, for display.
