Publisher Description
Mankind's greatest mystery lies in wait...
Civil war rages in Ethiopia. A priest waits to die in a parched prison cell; he has not seen daylight for four decades. But then a mortar shell hits the compound, and the prisoner and his secret are free.
Two reporters and a beautiful photographer save this wounded man, who tells them something too incredible to believe: the location of the Holy Grail. Thus begins an impossible quest that will pit them against murderous tribes, deadly assassins, fanatical monks, and ultimately, themselves.
The Quest is a breakneck search for an ancient legend amid a dangerous jungle war - and no one's coming out unscathed.

The Quest
Absolutely brilliant. A page turner from the first to last page. Could not put this book down until I finished it. Very well written.

As a veteran DeMille fan I am used to strapping myself in for a thrilling ride. This book however left me feeling nothing short of ripped off. Often wondered if DeMille was the true author, it was that bad. Can I get my money back? There was so much "(name) didn't respond" I couldn't believe it. What is that? Good to fall asleep to.

I found this a bit tedious as nothing much happened for most of the book except war atrocities and once youve read them there is nothing new
