The story that follows is the most dangerous kind; a construction of facts and fiction. An archaeological adventure is told through three parallel stories that will be brought together at the end. The book takes the reader across the eastern European continent from Österlen in Sweden to Larnaca in Cyprus. It follows the development of the main character Ivan's journey from being a promising archaeological doctoral student to becoming an illegal antique dealer on the dark sides of the Internet. The reader also meets the archaeologists Magda and Niklas, the IT consultant James, and the two police officers Camilla and Martin, who hunt for the stolen objects online and in real life. The story of the bronze cauldron; brings all three stories together and gives the reader snapshots of history as the reader follows the archaeological adventure through time and space. By following the story of the bronze cauldron, one understands that history is not beautiful, but if sweeping it under the rug or altering it in any way, we will be doomed to repeat it.
