Secrets Of The Dead Sea Scrolls

by Logan Crowe

Overview

AD 69. Jesus had been crucified more than 30 years before. Caesar's Legions had been sent to Judea to eviscerate any trace of Christianity. Their plan? To obliterate Jerusalem and its people, burn all the sacred scriptures and plunder the wealth of the Second Temple.

Against this backdrop, one brave man was chosen. He was trained for many years for a secret destiny he didn't want. Someone had to protect the sacred scriptures written since before the time of Moses, but would he answer that calling or would allow the heathens of Rome to burn Christianity's most holy scrolls and carry off the treasures of God's people?

About the Author

Born in England and educated in the United Kingdom, Logan Crowe started traveling as a young boy seeking adventure. At 21, he took off with a friend for Africa and crossed the continent North to South through the Sahara, sometimes on foot, as their old Land Rover did not want to travel as far as they did.

This was, in fact, where he got the inspiration for his first published novel Secrets of the Dead Sea Scrolls, while holed up in an abandoned French Foreign Legion outpost called Fort Mirabelle in the middle of the desert in Algeria, where they stayed until the engine was repaired. Cold desert nights watching Bedouin camp fires in the distance and not knowing who was friend or foe was a great catalyst for an over-active imagination. And this tale began to take shape on that long-ago trip.

Eight months later, having dodged many conflicts and machine-gun-toting patrols, the pair rolled into South Africa bound for Australia, determined to swim the coral of the Great Barrier Reef. But fate had a different plan for Logan. In Johannesburg, he met a Brazilian girl who professed undying love for the young Brit. He changed his ticket and flew off to Rio de Janeiro in search of his love.

Once in Rio, she was nowhere to be found. Short on funds, he stayed and got a job with General Motors in Sao Paulo. Eight years and two children later, he had accumulated enough money to take off again for what he thought would be his final destination. Landing in Oklahoma in the middle of the 1980's oil boom, he and his children made a home in Oklahoma City.

Fate again intervened on a trip to Texas when he met the one true love of his life, wife Jenny. The poor misguided soul decided to take him on and has been his inspiration for the last 20 years. Together they are raising another gift from God, grandson Devon, who is already a "chip off the old block" -- an avid adventurer.

I was gifted a copy of Secrets of the Dead Sea Scrolls. I couldn't put it down. I had to keep reminding myself that I had other things to do. I'm only about a third of the way through so far, but fully intend to finish it soon. There are parallel stories, each as wonderful and exciting as the others. I greatly dislike when someone gives away too much information, so I am treading carefully here. Let's just say that this book made familiar Bible stories come alive in new and exciting ways while a
