A discovery that not only threatens to destroy the charismatic new Pope, but one that could shatter two thousand years of faith and challenge the very foundations of the western world.

  • "In this new fast-paced thriller by internationally bestselling author Glenn Meade'a fascinating battle emerges between archaeology and the church, with hidden secrets and murder. In the desert near Jerusalem, an archaeologist is murdered after he uncovers stunning evidence in a Dead Sea scroll about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. The 2,000-year-old parchment containing enigmatic references to not one but two messiahs is stolen before it can be fully translated. In Rome, a charismatic American priest with long-hidden secrets is elected pope, setting off widespread panic among some of the faithful who question whether he is the anti-Christ or the world's new savior. As the conspiracy over the scroll explodes into a political and religious standoff, two people find themselves on the run, trying to stay one step ahead of unknown assassins in their search for truth. Archaeologist Jack Cane and Israeli police inspector Lela Raul must solve the mystery of the Second Messiah and uncover the real secret behind the message of Jesus before they are permanently silenced and the scroll and its contents are forever lost to humanity. Compared to the likes of Frederick Forsyth, John le CarrE, and Tom Clancy, Glenn Meade offers a tantalizing blend of fact and fiction that will take readers on a thrilling ride from the first page to the last."@en
  • "Hauptbeschreibung Yeshua HaMeshiah - Jesus, der Messias. Als der Archäologe Jack Cane diese Zeilen in einem alten Papyrus liest, glaubt er an eine Sensation. Ist dies die wirkliche Lebensgeschichte Jesu Christi? Doch der Text ist unvollständig. Die fehlenden Passagen sind im Besitz eines mächtigen Mannes. Und dieser wird alles tun, damit die Wahrheit über das Leben Jesu nie ans Licht kommt. Denn er ist der neue Papst."
