Book Summary
When a renowned archaeologist announces the discovery of a first-century tomb containing what claims to be the skeletal remains of Jesus Christ, the foundations of the Christian faith are shaken worldwide. Biblical scholar Dr. Jonathan Weber embarks on a rigorous forensic and historical investigation across the Middle East and Europe to test the authenticity of the finding, ultimately uncovering an intricate and deceptive conspiracy.
