Description

At the heart of Jerusalem's Temple Mount lies a secret vault. A priceless artifact has been stolen from it, sparking violence and tension between Israelis and Palestinians. Thirteen lives have been lost, and the situation is escalating by the minute. In Vatican City, American scientist Charlotte Hennesey and Italian anthropologist Giovanni Bersei are tasked with examining a mysterious artefact: the bones of a two-thousand-year-old unidentified, crucified man. Could these be the remains of Jesus Christ? As they work against the clock to uncover the truth, they must navigate the complex web of alliances and rivalries that shape modern Middle Eastern politics. The Sacred Bones is a fast-paced thriller that blends historical fact with persuasive fiction. With its intricate plot and thought-provoking themes, it will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
