Here is a link to an excerpt.

Dr. David Chambers no longer wants to be a biblical archeologist, so he becomes a professor.

Abram Ben-Judah, an old mentor, asks him to come back to Israel to help him find the treasures written about in the Copper Scroll.  David feels he has no choice but to go.

Will this help renew his desire to be a biblical archeologist, his faith in God, and his former fiancée?

About the authors-

Grant R. Jeffrey lives in Toronto with his wife, Kaye.  He has written more than two dozen books and is a respected teacher of biblical archeology and prophecy/eschatology.

Alton L. Gansky lives in California with his wife.  He has been involved in more than 30 novels with nine nonfiction. 

My thoughts- I like reading suspense and Christian based books.  This book didn’t live up to either of those for me.  There was suspense here and there, but there wasn’t as much as I thought there was going to be based on the cover of the book.  Most of the high suspense didn’t happen until the last quarter of the book.

I know Dr. Chambers used to believe more in God, so I thought there would be more from the other characters to lead him back to God.  I was glad to see that by the end of the book that he does come back to God and become a better man.

I had a hard time putting this book down, so I recommend The Scroll.
