| Only the lost wealth of the Great Tem- ple in Jerusalem is rich and significant enough to ransom the frightful weapons stolen from the arsenals of the free world by Irgun terrorists-- weapons that Spain s rapacious and noble de Covedonga family must have to succeed in their ultimate bid for power. And only one man has the key to its location in the mist-shrouded mountains of the Basque homeland, the key which he has intricately re-corded on a strange map for all whohave eyes to see it. The deadly searchbecomes a desperate race againsttime which evokes the passions oflust, greed, and even love amongthose enmeshed in its course. With the sort of fast-paced narrativethat earned acclaim for his first novel,The Styx Complex, Russell Rhodeshas created another spellbinder inwhich the forces at work are as old asancient history and as modern as theholocaust. |
