Book Description
It doesn’t end with death. David Robinson’s life has taken several turns for the worse: first his daughter dies, then his marriage crumbles, and his career as a mystery writer falls apart. But after he is killed in a hit-and-run accident, David quickly learns that he will face his most harrowing challenges—as a Wraith in the Shadowlands. Unable to contact or influence the world of the living, David’s agony is made worse when he learns that his ex-wife’s relationship with a dangerous man named Tony Ranieri has put her life at risk. Tony possesses—and is possessed by—a relic filled with such awesome powers of destruction that dark forces within the Shadowlands will stop at nothing to obtain it. They’ll even spur Tony to murder and manipulate the soul of David’s daughter to force his cooperation. But David is already dead, and he knows that power is a blade that cuts two ways.

The Sign
Author: Thomas de Wesselow
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0452299039
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 497
Book Description
How did a first-century Jew called Jesus manage to spark a new religion? Christianity was born nearly two thousand years ago and has won untold millions of followers. Yet, historians still cannot say how it really began. The Sign finally provides the answer. Traditionally, the birth of Christianity has been explained via the miracle of the Resurrection, but historians have been unable to account for Christianity’s remarkable success without the Resurrection to spark it. If no one really saw the Risen Jesus, how were people convinced that he was their immortal Messiah? Art historian Thomas de Wesselow has spent the last seven years deducing the answer to this puzzle. Reassessing a much-misunderstood historical source and reinterpreting critical biblical passages, de Wesselow shows that the solution has been staring us in the face for more than a century. The Shroud of Turin, widely thought to be a fake, is, in fact, authentic. And it holds the key to the greatest mystery in human history.

The Second Coming
Author: John Heubusch
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501155768
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
In this fast-paced sequel to The Shroud Conspiracy “that Dan Brown fans will love” (Library Journal), the child cloned from the blood on the Shroud of Turin has the potential to change the world—or to destroy it for good. “John Heubusch is brilliant. I would read anything he writes” (Peggy Noonan, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and bestselling author). In this “sensational sequel” (Steve Forbes), a fallen angel is mistakenly resurrected from the blood of an evil “Watcher” taken from the Shroud of Turin, and the fiend bestows an unstoppable plague on the world. Dr. Jon Bondurant, the forensic anthropologist and avowed atheist, joins with devout Domenika Josef to bring another child of the Shroud into the world to save it, this one borne of DNA believed to be that of Jesus Christ. Can this child be the answer to their—and mankind’s—prayers? His parents are uncertain just who the child is or what he will become, but when he starts demonstrating remarkable powers to heal, they begin to understand that whatever he is, he is not of this world. Might he bring miracles to the world when it needs them the most? Or has science given mankind a tool with which it will destroy itself as the tempting power of the Watcher unfolds? What follows is a globe-spanning chase to uncover the truth and stop a pandemic that just may wipe out humanity once and for all in a “smart, electrifying thriller that delivers cover-to-cover” (Brad Thor, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Spymaster).

The Turin Shroud Is Genuine
Author: Rodney Hoare
Publisher: Souvenir Press
ISBN: 9780285634718
Category : Holy Shroud
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
For years, scientists and religious believers have been debating the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin. Rodney Hoare spent more than 20 years researching the facts surrounding the shroud and came to the conclusion that it is indeed the cloth that once contained the body of Jesus Christ. This thorough work addresses all of the issues in question including why the carbon-dating evidence of 1988 should not be accepted, how the shroud’s Middle Eastern origin can be proven, how the famed image on the shroud was created, and how the shroud traveled from Palestine to Italy. This historical detective story, in paperback for the first time, includes an update by Clare Stevens on the most recent research and findings.
