    About this audiobook

    Deep beneath the windswept waters near Istanbul, marine archaeologist Jack Howard and his crack team of experts have uncovered a clue to the location of the lost golden menorah of Jerusalem that was plundered during the Crusades. Meanwhile, in a dusty cathedral library, someone has unearthed a long-forgotten medieval map. Together the two discoveries will solve an ancient mystery-and spark a race to stop a present-day conspiracy of staggering proportions.

    From diving into the core of an arctic iceberg to the last stand of a Viking warship to an extraordinary revelation deep in the jungles of Central America, Jack is headed straight into a globe-spanning clash of civilizations-and to a confrontation with a killer on a shattering crusade of his own.

      This being Gibbins second novel, it was a marked improvement from Atlantis. The story is a bit implausible at times, with a lot of coincidences, and yet that's how a lot of history has been discovered. Gibbins knows his material, and is really passionate about it, though he is a bit effusive at times - like many of us who are given free reign to write about that which we love. I can't wait until February for the next book with Jack Howard.
    • 4/5
      Although it could have done with some harsh editing, this isn't a bad read, lagging in places when the author felt a need to pass on some of the historical facts to the audience so almost losing my interest a few times by the end though it had me firmly gripped by the story and I really did want to know if some of the characters survived.Better written in many ways than the Da Vinci Code and there's a blurb from the Mirror that suggests crossing Indiana Jones with the Da Vinci Code and getting this book. It spans the Atlantic going from Iona to Greenland to Canada to Mexico to Instanbul to Rome and sometimes the galloping pace almost left me behind. Still a good thriller.
