I read a book of that name by Douglas Preston which I thought had enough material for a movie, a thriller. A billionaire wants to be buried in a Mayan tomb along with his precious art collection and he wants the three sons to come and get the inheritance from this tomb. A private eye is also in the chase. The Mayan Codex is also in the collection which has enough details of herbal medicines to drive big time drug companies to bankruptcy. A ravishing beauty who is also a chemist wants this Codex and hence joins the chase by falling in love with the youngest son. There are more juicy twists as they reach Honduras. What a movie this would be!
