When
Greg and Jill bring a "souvenir" Dead Sea Scroll back from the Holy
Land, a Palestinian terrorist group invades their home, taking Jill
hostage. Greg finds himself with an ancient Hebrew parchment worth
millions, wanted by both Palestinians and a radical far-right Israeli
organization. When he tries to exchange it for Jill's freedom,
everything goes wrong. The police target him as a suspect in his wife's
disappearance, and he sets out alone on a perilous chase to save her.

"A riveting,
edge of the seat book that is set against the backdrop of the modern
Middle East."
Women on Writing
"Author Chester Campbell's
prose, like his protagonist, is quick, clean and brash. The story runs at a
breakneck pace, never faltering. The Arab-Israeli conflict informs the plot,
but the author handles the region's complexities with an even hand."

unable to put this book down till the end. Full of intrigue and suspense, it is
a real page turner. Excellently written, a must read for all those who enjoy
this type of genre. I highly recommend it. Well done, Mr. Campbell."

"Given the state of affairs in the Middle East,
it's not hard to imagine a single incident igniting into a major
conflict...an intriguing and entertaining thriller that shows how such a
scenario might occur."
The (Nashville) Tennessean
"A first person, narrative mystery thriller of
the first order...if you like good solid writing, thoughtful
characterization and a believable story you'll enjoy this book."
