For more than a thousand years, the myth of Thor's hammer has persisted. According to the legend, whoever wields the Norse god's weapon holds the power to smash mountains into valleys - and even to destroy the gods themselves. When Lara Croft's exploration of an ancient ruin on the floor of the Mediterranean Sea yields evidence that the enduring myth is not so mythical after all, she is thrust into a race against time to unravel the secrets behind the stories and prevent the exploitation of a power beyond human imagining. Will she be able to find her way to the truth in time, or will this forgotten power be unleashed and lay waste to all of civilization?
