Book excerpt: In The Tenth Chamber, Glenn Cooper introduces us to a new hero, Luc Simard, an archaeologist with a flawless academic career and a flawed history with women. When a book dating to the fourteenth century is found after a fire in a monastery in the Perigord region of France, Luc's old friend Hugo calls him in to help decipher the mysterious illustrations that dot the coded manuscript. The illustrations remind Luc of the cave paintings the Perigord region is famous for, but neither man can make any sense of the text's message, save for the fact that it claims to be written by a 200-year-old monk. What Luc and Hugo do find in the manuscript is a map that leads them to a ten-chambered cave that is beyond their wildest expectations. The cave's walls are painted with images far more detailed and advanced than those at Lascaux, yet there are clues that suggest this cave is more than 10,000 years older. Theirs is the discovery of a lifetime. The secret of the cave lies in the coded pages of that fourteenth-century manuscript, but it's a secret that someone is willing to kill to protect.

Book excerpt: Book of Souls picks up the action a year after the conclusion of the international sensation Library of the Dead. Will Piper’s life has been forever changed by the astonishing secret he discovered hidden at the government’s clandestine installation deep under the Nevada desert. His uneasy retirement from the FBI is interrupted when a long-missing book surfaces at an auction house in London. A group of ex-Area 51 employees recruits Will to assist them in obtaining the book and in helping them solve a mystery that will affect the fate of all mankind. As government operatives try to stop him, Will discovers the ancient missing volume has had a profound effect on history. Remarkably, a newly found puzzle sonnet by a young William Shakespeare seems to have been inspired by the book. As Will peels back the onion to solve a series of clues hidden in the poem, he finds the book has influenced not only Shakespeare but also the religious philosophy of John Calvin, the father of predestination, and the prophesies of the seer Nostradamus. When the final clue yields the ultimate secret, Will is forced to confront a truth which humanity may not be prepared to accept.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elisabetta Celestino, a brilliant young archaeologist at work in Rome’s ancient catacombs, has discovered a unique pattern of astrological symbols on an underground wall. She feels sure that evidence of a previously unknown pre-Christian sect lies in an adjacent chamber, and is devastated when the Vatican refuses to support her excavation effort. Ten years later, a cave-in damages the vault, revealing a chamber full of human skeletons that share a disturbing anatomical feature. Elisabetta has joined an Augustinian order following the tragic end of her academic career, but unexpectedly finds herself in a race to solve the secret of the catacomb and prevent an apocalyptic event that threatens the future of humankind. Moving between present-day Europe, 1st-century Rome and Elizabethan England, The Devil Will Come is an exhilarating tale of a battle between the forces of good and evil that has been fought in the shadows through the centuries and across continents—and that both sides are willing to kill to keep secret.
