"Move over Indy, Chase Baker is the new name in action and romance..." The kidnapping of the Pope... The heist of the spear that pierced Christ's side during the crucifixion... The rise of the Neo-Nazi Fourth Reich... The only man who can stop it all is adventurer, Chase Baker After surviving a bloody run-in with ISIS sympathizing bandits in the middle of Morocco's Sahara Desert, adventurer and Renaissance man, Chase Baker, finds himself in the presence of a Vatican priest who desperately needs his help. One of the church's great relics has been stolen by a surviving member of the Nazi SS. A man by the name of Adolf Rickman. The relic is none other than the spear of Longinus. The very weapon that pierced Jesus Christ's side while he hung from the cross on Golgotha. If Chase can't recover the spear, it will be used by Rickman and his neo-Nazi cohorts, to create a brand new evil Fourth Reich. One thing stands in Rickman's way however. The spear is not complete. Its tip has been broken off. The power of the spear can only be accessed with the tip when it is once again reunited with its whole. But who is the keeper of the spear tip? The Papal Father himself. So what does this mean for Chase? It means that not only must he recover the spear, he must prevent the Pope from being kidnapped by a band of 21st Century Nazis bent on taking over the world. Now, along with the help of a beautiful and sexy Vatican archivist and a chain-smoking priest, Chase Baker travels to Italy, the Vatican, Germany and points in between in search of the one relic that can either save mankind, or obliterate it. For fans of Russell Blake, Clive Cussler, Dan Brown, Boyd Morrison, and Brad Thor comes another full-length, hair raising, Chase Baker action/adventure from New York Times and USA Today bestselling ITW Thriller Award Winner, Vincent Zandri. Filled with romance, suspense, intrigue, and just plain fun, Chase Baker and the Spear of Destiny is one wild ride. "If you put Zandri and Dan Brown in a dark Cairo back alley, I'd put money on Zandri. He went to Cairo in the middle of the Arab Spring (against the explicit wishes of the U.S. State Department), gathered materials for the book while Tahrir Square rioted ... The Shroud Key is page-turning fun for popcorn munchers." --Ben Sobieck, CrimeFictionBook Blog "Zandri has brought back that wonderful 'quest' story ... THE SHROUD KEY is well worth every minute." --SUSPENSE MAGAZINE
