The Scroll gives plenty of suspense


The Scroll by Grant R. Jeffery and Alton L. Gansky
Dr. David Chambers is a nationally known archaeologist and author. He spent most of his life trying to substantiate the truth of the Bible by uncovering artifacts.  After his greatest discovery, Herod tunnel that runs under Jerusalem, he has not been back to the Holy Lands. In fact, after his mother’s death, he has forsaken his biblical research. And he has given up on just about everyone, especially God. His friend and mentor, Abram Ben–Judah calls to try to pull him out of his depression. Abram is putting together a team for a once in a lifetime chance to search for the treasure listed in the Copper Scroll.  Stir in the mix is ex-fiancĂ©e, Amber, and you have a book filled with history, romance, danger, mystery, and murder.
Once I started this book, it was hard to put it down. The suspense of discovery ancient items, the danger in the underground tunnels, and the rich cast of characters made this a worthy read. Lots of factual history from the Bible is included in the novel. It is written in the future decade and the technology is astounding. You never know which technology is real or fabricated, but it is true to life and very realistic.  This copy was given to be by WaterBrook Press for review.
