What to expect
FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR
‘Deadly conspiracies, bone-crunching action and a tormented hero with a heart . . . packs a real punch’ Andy McDermott
Ben Hope wanted a fresh start, but fate had other plans.
When ex-SAS operative Ben Hope decided to give up rescuing kidnap victims in favour of the Theology studies he abandoned years before, he should have known that his old life would never be far behind him.
Searching for missing biblical archaeologist Zoë Bradbury, Ben finds himself embroiled in his riskiest mission yet. What is the ancient secret that Zoë uncovered? And just who is willing to do anything it takes to protect it?
Ben soon discovers that it's not just his and Zoë's lives on the line, but those of millions, threatened by a fundamentalist plot to gain ultimate power. The stakes are terrifyingly high as Ben races to prevent a disaster that could kick-start apocalyptic events as foretold by the Book of Revelation…
A pacy, gripping page-turner from the Number 1 Sunday Times Bestseller. Perfect for fans of Dan Brown, Lee Child and Mark Dawson.
Whilst the Ben Hope thrillers can be read in any order, this is the third book in the series.
