Opis

A long hidden secret is about to be uncovered in a little known part of Florida-Lake Okeechobee. And, as usual, Shea Baker is right in the mix when he receives a mysterious object-the head of a spear-and this letter: Dear Mr. Baker, While some may think your book Holy Land and the story of the re-emergence of the healing cloak of Jesus is purely fictional, I do not. I know it is true. Just like this story. Inside this package, you will find a replica of the head of a spear known to Biblical historians as the "Spear of Destiny." The original spear held by a Roman guard was used to pierce the side of Jesus as he hung on the cross. After the crucifixion, the spear disappeared. It traveled to several countries, and a number of successful military leaders are said to have possessed it, including Hitler. Just like the cloak did in your book, the spear has resurfaced and is believed to be in South Florida. A number of very deluded but powerful men still cling to the hope that if they can get their hands on the spear, which they believe is infused with the power of God, the Fourth Reich will rise to power and rule the world-a more powerful rerun of Hitler and the Third Reich. I'm sure you will agree that keeping this from happening is of the utmost urgency. I will contact you soon to tell you the whole story. Rest assured this is not a hoax. The Consigned A water canal, Burmese python, burning cross, alligator pit, and the Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan are only a few of the obstacles Shea Baker experiences as he searches for the Spear of Destiny. If you loved The Cloak, you'll enjoy reading about Shea Baker's escapades into the interior of Florida where he uncovers a plot of world altering proportions. The Spear of Destiny is the second in a series of exciting Shea Baker mysteries.
