The Blood King: An Archaeological Thriller (Relics of God Trilogy)

By Matthew James

Take part in a modern-day crusade for one of humanity's most sought-after treasures in an adrenaline-fueled thriller from the international bestselling author of The Cursed Thief and the Jack Reilly series. One of the most coveted artifacts in human history is discovered in the hands of a truly remarkable individual, a man who is supposed to be pure myth. Jacob Fehr has devoted his life to neutralizing high-level threats. From his days in Unit 217, an elite division within the Israel Defense Forces, to his current service with the Mossad, Jacob's skills have been honed in the crucible of undercover operations across the Middle East. Little does he know that his most challenging mission is about to unfold. Naomi Fehr, a brilliant historian and archaeologist, unearths an ancient ruin in Jerusalem that defies the limits of reality. As she and her colleagues delve into the enigma, they stumble upon a truth that draws the attention of a clandestine organization shrouded in a 2,000-year-old mystery that seeks the same knowledge. As a result, they ruthlessly attack the Israel Antiquities Authority headquarters and leave chaos in their wake. Miraculously escaping the brutal attack, Naomi and her department head seek refuge with the only person they can trust, Naomi's twin brother, Jacob. From the vibrant streets of Tel Aviv to the misty Scottish Highlands, the Fehrs must combine their unique talents to uncover the orchestrators behind the bloody assault. The stakes intensify as they race against time to prevent the shadowy group from obtaining their ultimate prize, the HOLY GRAIL, as well as the legendary gift it's said to bestow upon those who possess it.
