Following the shock of finding an empty sarcophagus in Alexander’s lost tomb, the Top Men have an ultimate showdown with Belgian archaeologist Jan Donvil and his thugs. An even bigger shock occurs after the fight ends, when the team realizes there’s someone else with them they hadn’t accounted for. After a mad dash across the Nitrian Desert, Black Cavendish, Agent 13, and Mr. Smith complete their mission.

Pursued by police in Alexandria, the Top Men escape into underground Roman chambers, only to face off with armed tomb robbers. At the harbor, the team meets with a Greek named Athanasios who provides them with scuba gear. After a bloody shark encounter, the divers reach a tunnel leading to a water-free room where a certain sarcophagus lies waiting to reveal its secrets.  

The Top Men are intensely questioned after landing their stolen Soviet helicopter at a US airbase in West Germany, but are ultimately allowed to leave. Afterwards, the team boards a Greek steamer bound for Alexandria, but the ship is attacked in the night, and a furious gun battle erupts. In Egypt, Stew calls upon an old contact from his days at Yale.

On their way into Germany, the Top Men confront suspected spies aboard their train, but things don’t go as smoothly as planned, and they are rescued from the Stasi’s scrutiny by an unlikely passenger. Once in the town of Ludwigsfelde, the team plans and executes an infiltration into the castle of Baron von Papen, attempting to retrieve Alexander the Great’s breastplate.

After sneaking into the Basilica Cistern at night, the Top Men navigate the dimly lit underground chamber looking for the X that marks the spot on their map. Discovering a hidden room, they uncover their next clue, directing them towards the German consulate where important records are kept.     
 

In the 1950s, a shadowy unit of the US Government called the Top Men sends three of its agents on a quest to find the lost tomb of Alexander the Great. In competition with the Soviets, the team begins their mission in Istanbul where they are slated to meet a contact with intel on Alexander’s breastplate.
