Search for the Ark of the Covenant. With the fall of Jerusalem, the Ark is dispatched to parts unknown, carried by porters as the Temple of Solomon was beseiged. Raymond Kayn makes it his life's ambition to find the Ark and return it to Jerusalem, and enlists the aide of many professionals, headed by his assistant who is a closet jihadist. At the site of the purported location in the Jordanian desert, all manner of evil decimates the expedition until a sandstorm wipes all but the industrious and the Ark is blasted to infamy as only two member of the expedition survive. De lectura fácil y rápida y con una trama que recuerda a las películas de Indiana Jones; entretiene de la primera a la última página. En cuanto a los personajes, en general antipáticos y con personalidades muy poco dibujadas; si diré que te quedas con ganas de saber algo más sobre el padre Fowler y también sobre los alegres y dicharacheros padre Albert y el gordo californiano (¿Orville?); no puedo decir lo mismo del personaje protagonista femenino, Andrea Otero, completamente "odiable" e insoportable, parece un personaje puesto a propósito para conseguir que la humanidad odie a las mujeres.

Formulaic plot, underdeveloped characters, but interesting concept.
