Summary

From a flyer:

When Indy headed home after an expedition to Ireland in June of 1941, he thought he was leaving behind a disgusting bog. the War, and a dead Nazi assassin who had wanted his hide for the things he'd done to prevent Hitler from obtaining the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail. Indy didn't take the assassin's dying threat but he was also confident that, once back on American soil, he'd be safe.

He was wrong.

And he soon found out — the hard way — that he wasn't the only one on the Fuhrer's hit list. When a second assassin showed up at the Museum and tried to take out Indy, his father, and Marcus Brody, Indy knew they were in trouble — big trouble.

Now, injured by the assassin, Marcus lies in a hospital, alive hut in a coma and beyond the help of modem medicine. The Nazi death squad, led by a zealous young officer with a personal grudge, is still plotting to kill the Joneses. And the U.S.government, along with another powerful international agency is trying desperately to hire Indy and Henry to help them find an important artifact; an artifact might stop the war in Europe and could ultimately save Marcus's life — or end theirs.
