The first book in the Knights of the Lost Temple series, the Bronze Scroll tells the story of Sam Romero and Rebecca Schreiber, as they investigate the latest corporate scandal. Sam is a corporate investigator, and Rebecca is a newspaper reporter, and they work together to figure out why a rogue corporate executive, Roy Griffin III, paid a large bribe for land development permits in Jerusalem, the Dead Sea and other locations in Israel. After Sam and Rebecca learn that Roy has been using the ancient treasure map known as the Copper Scroll to search for ancient religious artifacts in a way that could spark a potentially catastrophic war, they need to learn enough about the scroll to stop him. Soon they discover that the scroll's mysteries go beyond anything they had imagined. Falling in love but realizing that their professional rules mean they have to stop dating, can Sam and Rebecca resist their forbidden love? After an Israeli land development official is murdered and assassins come after him, Sam must go underground while working to solve the scroll's last mysteries. Then, when Rebecca is kidnapped, he has only hours left to rescue her and stop Roy from gaining the power that he seeks through the missing treasures. Using mysterious spiritual powers that he has long resisted, and the protection of a secret knighthood that he discovers, Sam must learn the explosive truth needed to save Rebecca, while uncovering the true spiritual meaning of the ancient Copper Scroll.

Deciphered, it could lead to one of the greatest prizes in history. But the treasure is as dangerous as it is valuable. Seeking the places where history and myth collide, following the trail left by Homer in his epic poems of heroic warriors, vengeful gods, and treasure beyond anything known to man, Grant is plunged into a labyrinth of ancient cults, forgotten mysteries, and lost civilizations. But time is running out. The secrets of the distant past may hold the key to the newest threats of the modern world."--BOOK JACKET.

The first thrilling novel in Raymond Khoury’s New York Times bestselling Templar series. In 1291, a young Templar knight flees the fallen holy land in a hail of fire and flashing sword, setting out to sea with a mysterious chest entrusted to him by the Order's dying grand master. The ship vanishes without a trace. In present day Manhattan, four masked horsemen dressed as Templar Knights stage a bloody raid on the Metropolitan Museum of Art during an exhibit of Vatican treasures. Emerging with a strange geared device, they disappear into the night. The investigation that follows draws archaeologist Tess Chaykin and FBI agent Sean Reilly into the dark, hidden history of the crusading knights—and into a deadly game of cat and mouse with ruthless killers—as they race across three continents to recover the lost secret of the Templars.
