Thieves in the Temple - Large Print [Large Print]

By Richard Freeborn

Jacob once commanded soldiers in Jerusalem. Now he scrapes a living in Nebuchadnezzar's glittering capital of Babylon. An impossible theft brings him to the attention of the Babylonian priests.

They need an outsiderThey need someone expendableThey need Jacob

Thrust into the treacherous maelstrom of court and temple politics, Jacob navigates a maze of priests, ambitious merchants, and spies-all while a killer stalks his every move. His only ally is Miriam, the brilliant exile he loves, whose sharp tongue cuts deeper than any blade and whose knowledge of Babylon's secrets rivals the king's own advisors.

Racing through ziggurat shadows and dark alleys, Jacob and Miriam uncover a conspiracy that threatens not just their lives, but the survival of every Jewish exile. The locked room was only the beginning. The genuine mystery runs deeper than the foundations of Babylon itself.

Ancient grudges demand fresh blood. Divine prophecies clash with human ambition. Time runs short for two exiles who must solve the unsolvable-or watch their people burn.

Some doors should stay locked. Some mysteries demand to be solved.
