Constantine Codex, The by Paul L Maier

For centuries, scholars have speculated about a lost book of the Bible. No one has ever found it--until now. A few pieces of centuries-old parchment tucked inside a tattered book lead famed archaeologist Jonathan Weber and his wife Shannon to what could possibly be the greatest find in church history--a discarded biblical manuscript whose ancient pages reveal a secret that will change the way the world views Scripture. Is it one of fifty copies commissioned by Constantine the Great and lost for centuries? Or the most sophisticated forgery of all time? When the manuscript is stolen, Jon is swept into a deadly race to find it and prove its authenticity before it's lost forever. Everything hangs in the balance--his career, his reputation, even his life--but he's willing to risk it all in one final daring attempt to determine the truth.
