LA ESTRELLA PERDIDA (Segundo libro de la trilogÌ_a EL PAPIRO).


Book Description

Sinopsis ¡REVELADORA!... ¡ÚNICA E IRREPETIBLE!... Un grupo de arqueólogos descubren en unos viejos papiros el misterio de La Vera Cruz, la cruz de la crucifixión de Cristo. Los escritos revelaban que los esenios, hermandad de la que formaba parte Jesucristo, la habían llevado y escondido en la cima del enigmático Kukenán, el llamado Tepuy de los Muertos, en la Gran Sabana, al sureste de Venezuela. Divor Klaus, un avezado antropólogo y aventurero, parte a buscarla porque los pergaminos revelaban que la cruz se materializaría a las tres de la tarde del Domingo de Resurrección de ese año. La Santa Sede, apoyada por los Dei Pax, una banda de sicarios al servicio de la Iglesia, va tras su pista, pero se topa con un místico secreto: el nacimiento en la tierra de los Nion, una especie de niños ángeles con poderes celestiales. Intrigas y confabulaciones se apoderan del Vaticano y sus más altos prelados hasta que el día señalado deviene la alineación del Triángulo Divino, acontecimiento que devela nuevas y tenebrosas profecías para la humanidad. Cuadro de la portada: En el año del silencio, de Diego Fortunato (Serie Horizontes Perdidos, 1991).-
