Thriller Arcane
What happened after the most important event in Christian
history? In 2004 an American army patrol rescues a frightened group
of Iraqi Christians fleeing Islamic militants. The refugees'
severely wounded leader insists on handing over a mysterious
bundle only to the army chaplain. What could this bundle
consist of that the dying old man had guarded it with his life? When the bundle is opened, the chaplain finds that it
contains an ancient manuscript written in an unknown
language. Fearing for its safety in war-torn Iraq, he
manages to have it shipped back to the States and it
eventually winds up in an Eastern Orthodox monastery where
linguists begin to interpret it. What they find is absolutely astonishing: a first-century AD
testimonial in Aramaic about what happened to Jesus'
apostles after the Resurrection. But time is running out. A
fanatical Iraqi insurgent organization is bound and
determined to retrieve or destroy the ancient manuscript
before the linguists complete their work. During the height of the Iraq War, an American army patrol
rescues a small group of Iraqi Christians fleeing Islamic
insurgents. These refugees have in their possession an
ancient Aramaic manuscript they have guarded with their
lives. When the manuscript is sent to America and
translated, scholars the world over will be astonished when
it is revealed to be a first century account of what
actually happened to Jesus' apostles in the years after the
Resurrection; where they went and how they died. While the translation is in process, a fanatical group of
Iraqi terrorists learns where the manuscript is located and
resolves to retrieve it and return it to Iraq.
