Historians Cameron Thorne and Amanda Spencer-Gunn uncover a stolen painting which the Nazis believed was a secret map to the Holy Grail and the lost treasure of the Knights Templar. Hitler planned to weaponize the Holy Grail and monetize the treasure as part of his campaign of world dominance. Cam and Amanda just want to find the legendary artifacts. The Nazis failed because they were unable to decipher the secret Templar clues left in the painting. Cam and Amanda may fail—perhaps fatally—because a group of modern-day Nazis remain obsessed with finishing Hitler’s work.
A thriller based on actual artwork, artifacts and events. Illustrated. Not recommended for readers with strong religious beliefs.
I was reading this last weekend, then stopped to read the Liberal Ladies Who Lunch Book Club choice:
Persuasion by Jane Austen.
Make that attempt to read. I made the discovery that I do not like reading Austen. I have loved every film adaptation of her works. It is the language that gets me; I had enormous difficulty keeping up with who was related to who, who was married to who and who was on First.
SO I cheated and watched the movie, which I loved (2022 Netflix,). It was witty, & beautifully filmed.
At the Book Club meeting, every person who came into the room said "I hated that damn book!!!" Not one of us finished it; one person resorted to CLiff Notes. We settled on next month's book then talked about what we were watching on TV for over an hour. It was hilarious!
I am very happy to be back in Templar Relic Land with David Brody.
