Cairo Interlude: Key to Destiny (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781076903013)

Sophia, an Egyptologist, meets Iliana, a gutsy archaeologist, while exploring the famous sites in Egypt. At a tea lunch in a fancy hotel in Cairo, they meet a sheik who is in possession of a rare copper scroll which indicates where the Essenes hid the treasures from the Holy Temple during the sacking Jerusalem by the Roman Legion. The sheik needs their archaeological expertise to find and excavate the site without permission from the Israeli Antiquities Authority. Intrigued by the possibility of finding a treasure more important than King Tut's tomb, they throw caution to the wind and grab at this opportunity of a lifetime. Sailing up the Nile on Saladin's yacht to the Gaza Strip, they meet his Bedouin cousins who drive them to the Dead Sea Scroll site. On a high bluff they find a hidden crypt containing gold bars and Torah scrolls that haven't seen the light of day for 2000 years. Descending with their treasures they run into Russian black marketeers who ambush them. Iliana counter-attacks like a professional assassin. What the girls discovered in the cave is more explosive than an atomic bomb, but they put the codices on the internet nonetheless. You'll be checking your pulse every five minutes as this clandestine adventure unfolds and you'll learn the bold archaeological truths that have an immense impact the Judaism and Christianity.
