Description
A golden relic, containing an ancient manuscript that could change the course of history, has been hidden in a monastery. But nobody knows where. One determined man sets out to find this sensational artefact and to trace its origins. His quest takes him via a scientific intelligence organization in London, a Middle Eastern outpost and a Crusaders castle, as layer by layer he reveals the religious mysteries inside the Shrine of Sacred Secrets. Coined by critics as the Norwegian Da Vinci Code , Relic is a masterful concoction of history and intrigue.
