In the tradition of Dan Brown, expect a wild ride from start to finish, as John B. Macurdy's The Masada Scroll mixes history, exotic locations, arcane religion, ancient texts, and plenty of modern action adventure. When former CIA assassin Nick Strahan undertakes a mission to help an old friend in trouble, archaeologist Dr. Jones, Strahan must evade danger or be assassinated himself. A shadow network of disparate and unlikely bedfellows helps him at each step along the way. Strahan can only guess at the explosive nature of Dr. Jones' find, and will do everything he can to make sure his find comes to light. "Strahan still didn't see any particular car that might be trailing him, but several other drivers had taken his passing them at a truly remarkable speed as a challenge. As a result, they had made the ludicrous decision to pick up the gauntlet and try to stay with him. This happenstance made for a truly comical scene playing itself out on the road behind Strahan as he watched the variety of unskilled drivers, who also lacked true performance automobiles, attempt to mirror his highly technical maneuvers. Equally humorous were the cornucopia of hand gestures that reflected the collective commuters' opinion of the road-rage drivers attempting to mimic him. But he flew over the East River so quickly he barely noticed he'd been over water." (About the Author) John B. Macurdy grew up in Stamford, Connecticut, received two degrees from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and currently resides in Santa Barbara, California. "I spent thirty years studying the historical origins of Christianity and the nature and identity of the historical Jesus. That became a nonfiction book I wrote called The Fourth Philosophy.
