The Guardians of the Covenant by Tom Egeland
In the year 1013, Viking warriors raided an Egyptian tomb and unknowingly stole the greatest secret of the Old Testament. When a quirky archaeologist finds ancient Viking parchments containing runes and riddles, his mundane life is changed for good. These codes lead him on a quest for clues in mysterious places, from Egyptian tombs to antiquarian bookshops. Powerful forces are against him, but he manages to unveil a religious cover-up with potentially fatal consequences.
'A complex and fast-paced conspiracy thriller of Old Norse myth, Ancient Egyptian superstition and Christian secret societiesWith codes, runes, hidden maps, archaic symbols, it's a treat for all fans of Steve Berry, Raymond Khoury and Dan Brown!' -- Kate Mosse, author of LABYRINTH
Tom Egeland has written six critically acclaimed thrillers, and has worked as a journalist and most recently as news director at one of the the largest Norwegian television stations, TV2. He lives in Oslo, where he now writes full-time.
