An award-winning author reveals the real-life Da Vinci Code fraud
that rocked the establishment. An ancient manuscript is discovered
claiming that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. The religious
world is thrown into turmoil. It sounds like the plot of a
conspiracy thriller, and is one of the biggest scandals of modern
scholarship. In 2012, Dr Karen King, a star professor at Harvard
Divinity School, announced a blockbuster discovery at a scholarly
conference just steps from the Vatican: she had found an ancient
fragment of papyrus in which Jesus called Mary Magdalene 'my wife'.
The tattered manuscript made international headlines. Biblical
scholars were in an uproar, but King had impeccable credentials as
a world-renowned authority on female figures in the lost Christian
texts from Egypt known as the Gnostic gospels. As Ariel Sabar began
to investigate the mysteries surrounding the papyrus, he embarked
on an indefatigable globe-spanning hunt that ultimately uncovered
the forgery and the identity of the forger, reckoning with
fundamental questions about the nature of truth and the line
between faith and reason.
