Description

Do the remains of Noah s Ark really exist? Before he dies, the father of ambitious young architect Dilara Kenner leaves her tantalising clues about the location of the legendary historical artefact - Noah s Ark. The most fabled relic of all time, the search for Noah s Ark has obsessed many over the years. And when Dilara starts her quest - aided by former army engineer Tyler Locke - she rapidly becomes transfixed by the thought of discovering it. But there are sinister forces gathering who have deadly reasons for wanting to be the first ones to get to the relic. From a helicopter crash in the Atlantic, to a sinister sect in Arizona s Mojave desert, to the remote slopes of Mount Ararat, this thrilling page-turner blends nonstop action with fascinating historical fact.

Reviews

Lightning-paced, chillingly real, here is a novel that will have you holding your breath until the last page is turned. One of the best debuts I've read this year - James Rollins The perfect blend of historical mysticism and clever, classical thriller plotting. Imagine the famed Ark rediscovered and reinvented to form the seeds of a modern day conspiracy. Boyd Morrison manages that flawlessly in this blisteringly-paced tale - Jon Land Like a thrill seeking ride in Disneyland, Morrison's thriller never pauses for breath... fast and furious with instant gratification - Daily Mail A bang-a-minute blockbuster - The Times
