Produktbeschreibung

Michael Turner though that he was involved in a lot of mystery and intrigue when he was an American Naval intelligence officer working for MI5, or better known as the British Secret Service during World War II, but little did he know that once he met Melissa Pembury, it would make those days seem like a quiet New England vacation.
Why? Because Turner and Melissa are about to go off on an adventure that will pit their cunning and ingenuity against some of the most powerful men in post World War II England.
After the suspicious death of her father, Melissa solicits the help of Turner, an American living in London to help her carry out a search for the chalice of Christ, and at the same time solve the murder of her father. William Pembury, a British Archeologist, had traced the chalice through a two thousand year journey whose path started at the Last Supper and led directly to a group of anti-Semitic aristocrats called the Right Club. The British secret society was now plotting to eliminate the Pembury women and unleash the power of the chalice.
Melissa and Turner follow a variety of clues that take them through some of London's most iconic venues until they finally meet with Spencer Davenport to test the power of the sacred chalice. Davenport is the head of the Right Club, an anti-Semitic group of British aristocrats that conspired with the Nazis during World War II and will stop at nothing to harness the chalice's powers. Who will win the chess match that might determine the fate of mankind itself, the college professor and archeologist's daughter, or the Right Club and the Nazis?

Autorenporträt

Randall Christen had been writing complex professional documents for decades, but once he retired in 2014 it allowed him to pursue his true passion, writing historically based mystery novels.
In his first offering, he has combined the research skills he has acquired over the past 25 years with a Creative Writing degree from Wisconsin to create a fascinating Historical Mystery novel, "The Carpenter's Chalice."
Driven by the personal need to convince audiences that the Holy Grail is the vessel that Christ drank from at the Last Supper and not Mary Magdalene, he has mined through centuries of historical information to show how the chalice could have logically moved through history from the Last Supper to London, circa 1950. In novel #2 of the Michael Turner trilogy, his main characters Turner and Melissa Pembury continue their cat and mouse game with the book sets main villain, Heinrich Himmler. With the surfacing of the Arc of the Covenant in book 2, the stakes rise to a whole new level as the pair urgently tries to penetrate the walls of the Vatican Archives in search of the Third Key, the one thing that can negate the Arc's power and determine the fate of man. Unnamed book 3,the final offering in the trilogy will be released in 2021.
