Biblical scholars Jack and Michelle Townsend are convinced that the original ending to Mark's Gospel---missing for 2,000 years---is hidden in Rome. But their hunt for the lost manuscript incites a jealous researcher and terrorists bent on ridding Rome of all Americans. Will the Townsends' faith survive in a swirl of conspiracy---and death? 400 pages, softcover from Abingdon.

Determined to find an answer, Jack and Michelle Townsend set out on a quest to find the original ending to the Gospel of Mark.

Following ancient clues, they head for Rome, but what starts out as a scholarly search turns violent as two separate groups strive to stop the Townsends, plunging their quiet research into chaos.

After a bomb destroys their office, the Townsends are pushed to the limits of their determination and commitment to God’s will. Can faith in God’s purposes endure in a swirl of conspiracy and espionage that brings the couple to the brink of death?

"This is a story of well-hidden biblical secrets that have endured throughout the ages and of a couple's devotion to finding the truth. It's a story fraught with death, danger, and deception--of never knowing who to trust, and with a twist of an ending I didn't see coming. Great read!" --Sharon Sala, author of The Searcher's Trilogy: Blood Stains, Blood Ties, Blood Trails
