Book description
632 AD. Deep within the Uranah Valley of Mount Arafat, the prophet
Mohammed shares with his closest companions a final and startling
revelation. Within days, he is dead.
September, 1789. US minister to France, Thomas Jefferson, charged
with forging a truce with the violent Muslim pirates of the Barbary
Coast, makes a shocking discovery: one that could forever impact the
world's relationship with Islam.
Present day. When a car bomb explodes outside a Parisian cafe, Scot
Harvath is thrust back into the life he has tried so desperately to
leave behind. Saving the intended victim of the attack, Harvath
becomes party to an amazing and perilous race to uncover a secret so
powerful that militant Islam could be defeated once and for all
without firing another shot or dropping another bomb.
But, as desperate as the US government is to have the information
brought to light, there are powerful forces just as determined that
Mohammed's mysterious final revelation remain hidden forever.
