About this listen

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.

Great read interesting characters. Great spin on the vampire trope. Can’t wait to read the next one.

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

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.

Enjoyable, but fell a little flat
