Lang Reilly's friend, multibillionaire and entrepreneur Sir
Eon Weatherston-Wilby, is unveiling some 4th century
parchments at the British Museum. Unbeknownst to Lang,
there are powerful forces working to destroy the
parchments, and during the evening, they strike, taking Eon
and the historical documents.
When Eon turns up murdered, Lang decides he must track down
the people responsible. To do so, he needs to find the
parchments and have them deciphered. Whatever information
those documents hold, someone wants hidden and is willing
to go to any lengths to keep it that way. As Lang begins
his investigation, he is struck down and left fighting for
his life.
When Gurt arrives back in the U.S., Lang discovers he has
more to live for than ever before. And if he's ever to have
peace and happiness again in his life, he will have to find
Eon's killers or spend the rest of his life on the run.
Lang and Gurt are pursued across continents, Turkish
islands, through cities, hotels, markets, mosques, and the
backwoods of Georgia by law enforcement officers and
killers, surviving by the skin of their teeth.
Gregg Loomis is a star in this genre. His fourth
book in the Lang Reilly series is like a roller-coaster
ride, as nail-biting and action-packed as the first three.
Loomis ups the ante in THE COPTIC SECRET, bringing Lang
something he'd all but given up on. I couldn't put this
book down. A highly recommended read.
Discovery of a missing ancient manuscript leads Lang
Reilly to London, Prague and Rome as he seeks to find
those who would kill him rather than have him reveal its
contents.
