American geologist Mark Malloy enjoys using geology to explain
Biblical stories, but when he and Israeli geologist Gilda Baer
discover ancient scrolls near the Dead Sea, he must pursue the
greatest Biblical story never told: what happened during the
eighteen years of Jesus' life missing from the Bible. Their quest,
having the potential to change the Bible, leads the two geologists
and an Israeli archeologist to locations along the Silk Road,
including Turkey, war-torn Iraq, and China, the eastern terminus of
the ancient trade route. Opposing this discovery and fearing its
impact on the Christian community is an influential and corrupt
financial official with a fundamentalist megachurch in the United
States who uses his ties in the Holy Land to assure that the
scrolls will never be released. Two mysteries are entwined. Follow
the adventures of this scientific trio as they encounter intrigue
and obstacles at every turn while discovering what happened two
thousand years ago.
