Publisher's Summary

An earthquake in Masada, Israel, kills hundreds and reveals a tomb buried in the heart of the mountain. A trio of investigators - Sergeant Jordan Stone, a military forensic expert; Father Rhun Korza, a Vatican priest; and Dr. Erin Granger, a brilliant but disillusioned archaeologist - are sent to explore the macabre discovery, a subterranean temple holding the crucified body of a mummified girl.

But a brutal attack at the site sets the three on the run, thrusting them into a race to recover what was once preserved in the tomb's sarcophagus: a book rumored to have been written by Christ's own hand, a tome that is said to hold the secrets to His divinity. The enemy who hounds them is like no other, a force of ancient evil directed by a leader of impossible ambitions and incalculable cunning.

a fanciful fiction

Not entirely accurate to archaeological evidence of the time of Jesus, however when suspending accuracy into maybes this is an interesting tale

Enjoyable, but fell a little flat

I enjoyed this novel. It was an interesting take on religion and vampirism. It fell a little flat for me in the character's storylines - I would have loved to see more depth to them. I will say that I liked the concept of the book and it was refreshing to read a vampire novel that wasn't solely focused on a romantic relationship, but I will pass on reading the rest of the series.
