Thunderhead (1998) is a novel by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child about a woman named Nora Kelly who finds a letter that was written sixteen years ago, but mysteriously sent to her only recently. The letter is written by her father, long believed dead. The letter talks about a lost city of gold that will make him famous and rich. This then leads Nora Kelly into leading an expedition into a harsh and remote corner of Utah's canyon country. There she searches for her father and his discovery and begins to unravel one of archeology's greatest mysteries.
