Blood and Bone
by Don Hoesel
Jack and Espy Hawthorne have put their archaeological adventures
aside for a decade after having 2 boys, until they are given 5 minutes warning
by Jack’s friend and ex-CIA operative, Ducky.
He warns them to take their boys and leave their home immediately. A rogue CIA agent is after the bones of
Elisha, which Jack and Espy buried in the desert in Australia ten years ago. The CIA agent’s wife is dying and he is
desperate to cure her and only Jack and Espy can help him retrieve the bones. In order to convince Jack and Espy to help
him, he kidnaps their 2 sons. Thus
begins the wild chase across several continents, battling powerful ancient
organizations and the Mossad to procure the bones in order to free their sons
from the grip of the rogue CIA agent.
Hoesel writes an adventure tale that keeps the reading
continually guessing. Although this is the second book about Elisha’s bones, it
stands alone as well. His work is
meticulously researched and he creates an interesting storyline complete with
many twists and turns. His main character,
Jack, is incredibly resourceful and reminds the reader of Indiana Jones. The ancient powerful organizations and their
intricate history sound something like Dan Brown would create. If you enjoy suspense written from a
Christian world view, this book should be on your list to read. I received a free copy from the publisher and
this is my honest review.
