For fans of James Rollins and Matthew Reilly comes the next exciting,
globe-trotting adventure in Andy McDermott's explosive series featuring
American archaeologist Nina Wilde and ex-SAS bodyguard Eddie Chase.
The Bible's last book hides a secret that could end the world.
In the heart of Iraq, on the eve of Operation Iraqi Freedom, a CIA
special forces unit met with Arab rebels near long-hidden ancient ruins,
a place from which the Americans were direly warned to stay away. But
team member Ezekiel Cross didn't listen and made an astounding
discovery--one worth killing for.
Now Cross is a ruthless cult leader on an ominous mission. Convinced
that he's unlocked the secrets of the Bible's Book of Revelation, he's
determined to gather four stone angels that will trigger God's promised
End of Days. And he's not alone. A former U.S. president, with a vision
of all-out religious warfare, plays a role in the dark plot. But while
Cross may have the clues to tracking down the remaining angels, he
hasn't been able to match them to real-world locations. For that he has
coerced famed archaeologist Nina Wilde into assisting him, using her
husband, ex-special forces soldier Eddie Chase, as collateral.
With Eddie held hostage, Nina is forced to recover relics of untold
power from Rome to Israel. She must find a way to halt Cross's mad
quest, because the last piece of the puzzle is at hand--and with it
comes the most terrifying revelation of all.
Praise for The Revelation Code
"There is no end to the mischief that husband and wife team Eddie Chase
and Nina Wilde can get into; no archaeological mystery is safe; and if X
marks the spot you can bet that that's where you'll also find Nina and
Eddie, no doubt looking a bit battered. . . . This is such a strong
series and I can never get enough of it. The Revelation Code is a fine
addition to it, combining a great plot and mystery with a new phase in
Eddie and Nina's relationship. I cannot wait to see what happens next.
Nothing will be the same again."--For Winter Nights
"A fun, frantic read that moves along at a breakneck pace, even through
heavy scenes of torture, religious insanity, and political posturing . .
. big-time popcorn adventure fun, complete with a dose of history and
humor."--Beauty in Ruins
