The Alkano Letters

By: Teicher, Kenneth Joel

THE ALKANO LETTERS is the first in a three book series following the exploits of archaeologist Erin Mathews and retired Major Craig Johnson.

In this story, Erin and her team have discovered twenty-four ancient letters whose content she believes has the potential of undermining the foundation of modern-day Christianity.

Believing the assignment will involve little more than a way to earn some easy money; Craig accepts a position to supervise a contingent of mercenaries charged with protecting Erin and her team on the tiny Greek Island of Alkano. Trouble begins almost immediately. Craig discovers that an ancient religious sect knows the esoteric message hidden in the letters and is sworn to protect it at any cost. At first, the team encounters suspicious mishaps meant to serve as a warning. When the warnings go unheeded, the threats turn deadly.

A journey to Egypt and Israel, where some of the letters were discovered, becomes critical to the analysis of the documents. Craig and Erin soon learn that they have not escaped the dangers posed by their adversaries. A desperate chase through the back streets of Jerusalem leads to Erin's abduction. Craig searches in vain, but only with the aid of a mysterious priest is he able to rescue her.

What begins as a straightforward task has become a complicated mission. The beautiful woman draws Craig into her search for the truth. The only thing that will ensure their safety is solving the two-thousand year old mystery; but time is quickly running out.

This story of intrigue, conspiracy and romance concludes with the astonishing resolution of the mystery of the letters, written between Jesus and members of his family.
