READ THIS: The Exodus Quest by Will Adams

Facts collide with fiction in the pulse-pounding sequel to the highly praised The Alexander Cipher, featuring archaeologist Daniel Knox.

THE EXODUS QUEST

On the trail of the lost Dead Sea Scrolls, archaeologist Daniel Knox stumbles upon a theft in progress at an ancient temple near Alexandria. Then a senior Egyptian archaeologist is violently killed, and the finger of suspicion points at Knox himself. To add to his mounting worries, his partner Gaille Bonnard is kidnapped while showing a television crew around the ruins of Amarna. She manages to smuggle out a message, pleading with Knox to rescue her, but he's locked in a police cell on suspicion of murder hundreds of miles away. His only hope of clearing his name and saving Gaille is to crack one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the ancient world...before it's too late.

Whom You Know's READ THIS panel could not put this down!  The consensus of the book panel reported:

We found The Exodus Quest by Will Adams to be such an engaging book! The sequel to The Alexander Cipher was a real page turner, and you don't have to have read The Alexander Cipher to understand the story line of this book. There many references to ancient Egyptian histroy throughout the book. 

The main plot was based on the main character, Daniel Knox-an archealogist vs. a group of Christians on an expodition in finding the Jewish Exodus. There were several story lines going on at the same time: Daniel Knox's, the Christian archealogists, Knox's partner with a filming crew, and a group of Egyptian detectives. Will Adams did an excellent job of flowing between the different story lines in a way that keeps you, as a reader, engaged. As we love Anthropology, we found this story even more appealing and the gripping tale make it difficult to put down this book. If you like action-packed adventure, we highly recommend this book.
