Larry Whitaker: Tip of the Spear, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Some truths refuse to stay buried. College student Tim Reid's world is upended when he receives a mysterious package postmarked from Arizona. Inside the box: a blackened bone, tagged with the number six, and a short note from the one person he trusted most-his grandfather, Bill Reid. That single event sets off a chain reaction: encrypted journals, ancient relics, sealed tombs, and ruthless men willing to kill for what Tim now carries. As he retraces his grandfather's final steps, Tim uncovers a hidden legacy stretching from the American Southwest to the catacombs of lost civilizations. At the heart of it all is a secret war-one waged for millennia between shadowy factions guarding ancient gates. But this is no ordinary conspiracy. The gates weren't built to keep people out. They were built to keep something in. With help from a fiercely loyal bullmastiff named Tiny, his sharp-witted colleague Amy, and his grandfather's trusted friend Collin, Tim must unlock a mystery that spans centuries, dimensions and bloodlines. His only hope may lie in understanding the ancient elixir and the ring Bill left behind-artifacts with powers not of this world. As the seals begin to weaken, powerful forces-both human and inhuman-are rising to seize control. The giants of old were real. And they want out. The Giant Chronicles: Tip of the Spear is the first novel in an action-packed, supernatural thriller series blending biblical history, modern conspiracy, and high-stakes adventure.
