"Murder and the discovery of a lost 16th Century manuscript by Nostradamus sends Selena Connor, Nick Carter and the Project on a global hunt for the lost Ark of the Covenant. The manuscript is composed of coded four-line prophecies that make little or no sense. Contained within the seeming nonsense is a trail of clues leading to the Holy Land and the ancient Order of the Knights Templar. They're not the only ones looking for the Ark. The body count begins to rise as members of America's wealthy ruling class seek the Ark for themselves. They plan a cynical war for profit and the Ark is part of their plan. They'll do whatever it takes -- including murder--to get what they want. Nick suffers from PTSD, and it's pushing Selena away. If he doesn't start dealing with the issues causing his nightmares and unintended violence, he'll lose her. But how can he find time when he's in the middle of one of the most dangerous missions of his career?"--Author's web page.
