Una arqueóloga iraquí nieta de un poderoso hombre con un oscuro pasado, cuatro ancianos con sed de venganza, traficantes de arte sin escrúpulos, un hombre en la sombra que mueve muchos hilos -El Mentor-, dos asesinos a sueldo y un cura que escuchó una confesión que jamás debió oír... Estos son algunos de los protagonistas de un rompecabezas inquietante que no se resuelve hasta la últmia página.
Tral el éxito de su primera novela La Hermandad de la Sabana Santa, Julia Navarro se confirma con La Biblia de Barro como maestra en la creación de tramas que atrapan al lector desde la primera página. El mundo del arte, la Segunda Guerra Mundial y sobre todo el poder que mueve los hilos del mundo por encima de la política y las creencias son los auténticos protagonistas de esta novela que llevará al lector por la historia y la intriga hasta un apasionante y sorprendente final.
From the internationally bestselling author of The Brotherhood of the Holy Shroud comes this electrifying new suspense thriller about a biblical discovery in the remote Iraqi desert--and a deadly struggle being waged on the eve of war to uncover a truth that's waited 3,000 years to be told....In St. Peter's Basilica, a man sits in a confessional asking forgiveness for a murder he's about to commit. And a young priest begins a desperate journey to stop him....It's only the beginning of a ruthless race among the world's most powerful to find a rumored cache of sacred texts inscribed with the story of Creation as told by Abraham. This account, on tablets of clay, predates the Bible by a thousand years and could be one of the most important discoveries of all time.Archaeologist Clara Tannenberg's announcement of an excavation to seek the tablets has set off shock waves of outrage, contempt, and outright disbelief. But among four old friends, bound through decades by shared tragedy, the announcement has renewed their hunger for revenge. For Clara's reclusive, infamous grandfather Alfred is a man as feared as he is hated and his enemies will stop at nothing to destroy him--and use anything as a weapon...even his granddaughter.Among rumors of Iraq's imminent invasion, time is already running out. As Clara and her husband Ahmed put together a ragtag team of renegade archaeologists and inexperienced students to excavate the Bible of Clay from deep within the heart of Iraq, another far more sinister team is determined to get there first. For Alfred Tannenberg has roots that reach deeply into the horrors of Nazi Germany and they've come to fruition in today's highest precincts of power.Sweeping from the time of the biblical patriarchs to the front lines of the Iraqi conflict to the parties and back rooms of Washington D.C., and other centers of influence, The Bible of Clay is a thriller of unrelenting, thought-provoking, and all-too-plausible suspense.From the Hardcover edition.
