The Judas Conspiracy (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

The discovery of a complete manuscript of the Gospel of Judas in a New Haven basement threatens to uncover a secret religious sect that has been growing underground for two millennia-a brotherhood active, dangerous, and determined to remain a secret. The murders begin on the eve of the manuscript's dedication at the esteemed Yale Divinity School's international conference. At first the targets are British and American scholars. But as the body count escalates, Scotland Yard and the FBI begin to suspect that the brotherhood has a much larger plan of destruction in mind. Detective Isabella O'Leary teams with scholar Paul St. Clair in an electrifying search for the killers, and answers to ancient questions. "Finally, a mystery novel about a secret sect that is written well and compellingly. The Judas Conspiracy is smart and intelligent and true to its sources of inspiration. Williams knows church history and biblical scholarship and she uses both to write a tight, convincing thriller. I love The Judas Conspiracy!" Dale Peterson, Associate Dean of Student Affairs, Yale Divinity School "Move over Dan Brown. I was hooked from the first page of The Judas Conspiracy, and the action never stopped, as secrets were revealed right up to the unexpected surprises at the end. Read Leslie Williams' gem of a book." Janet Morris, author of Saving a Life and Jesus in the Midst of Success
