O ovoj e-knjizi
Tensions erupt across Christian, Islamic, and Jewish faiths when a coveted artifact is stolen from Jerusalem in this international conspiracy thriller.
An ancient burial box has disappeared from its long-hidden vault located directly beneath Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. With the violent theft leaving thirteen Israeli soldiers and policemen dead, and the Palestinians up in arms over the desecration of sacred grounds, the tension between the two groups is dangerously high.
Meanwhile, American forensic scientist Charlotte Hennesey has been hired by the Vatican to examine the two-thousand-year-old bones of an unidentified, crucified man—the first complete skeleton of a crucifixion victim ever found. Together with Italian anthropologist Giovanni Bersei, Charlotte makes startling discoveries that lead her to wonder if these could be the bones of Jesus Christ.
The Sacred Bones blends historic fact with fast-paced fiction in a thrilling tale of conspiracy that stretches from the days of the Templar Knights to the shifting alliances of contemporary Middle Eastern politics.
