Thriller Political
The first book in an exciting new trilogy from the king of
high-octane adventure (Brad Thor) stars Sam Deker from
Greanias's "The Atlantis Revelation."
Deep beneath the ancient city of Jerusalem lies a secret
that knows no bounds, devastating enough to reach across
time. History’s greatest spy story begins here. For a millennium, Jerusalem’s Temple Mount has been at the
center of war and death. There’s never been a time when
blood wasn’t spilled upon this ancient, sacred site. Flash
forward to present-day Jerusalem, where 35-year-old Israeli
counterterrorism agent Sam Deker has just thwarted the most
recent act of violence—an attempt by radical Palestinians to
blow up the Dome of the Rock mosque and pin the blame on
right-wing Orthodox Jews. The threat, however, is a
diversion. Deker himself is the real target. He is captured
and taken to neighboring Jordan, where he is tortured
because of his deep knowledge of Israel’s most closely
guarded state secret. Deker escapes with his comrade Uri Elezar, making it all the
way to the border, only to be taken down at the banks of the
Jordan River. This time, however, Deker wakes up in the
middle of the ancient Israelite army on the eve of its
historic siege of Jericho. Deker doesn’t know if he is dead,
in some torture-induced psychosis, or really back in time.
But General Bin-Nun has declared a colossal holy war, and
he’s sending Deker and Elezar on a dangerous mission to spy
on the Promised Land in advance of the invasion. For Deker, it’s his only hope to escape this genocidal hell.
Then he finds himself in the arms of a beautiful enemy named
Rahab, caught in a web of deadly betrayal, as he struggles
to unlock the truth, secure Israel’s future and his own, and
save the twenty-first century from The Promised War.
