Book description
Harry Blake appreciates the quiet life. As an antique-map-dealer in a small English town, he rarely strays from the straight and narrow. But when a local landowner asks him to value a four-hundred-year-old-journal and is then brutally murdered, Harry’s peace of mind is shattered.
What does the dusty journal contain that is a matter of life or death?
The trail of the journal leads him into a world of deadly Elizabethan conspiracies and through a thousand years of religious intrigue back to the blood-soaked Crusades and the secret location of an ancient holy relic. Can Harry and marine historian Zola Khan find the missing piece of a celestial puzzle that is attracting some particularly violent adversaries? At stake are millions of dollars and a terrorist plot to trigger nothing less than total war…..
