(22,859 posts)The Nazi's Engineer by J Robert Kennedy
ONE OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR'S MOST ENDURING MYSTERIES IS ABOUT TO BE SOLVED.
BUT AT WHAT COST?
Nazi Germany. 1945. When Detective Inspector Wolfgang Vogel is approached by his distraught neighbor, begging him to find her missing husband, he is quickly drawn into a case the Gestapo and SS are determined he never solve, putting his own life, and that of his family, at risk.
And over 70 years later, Archaeology Professor James Acton and his wife discover the horrifying reason behind what turns out to be far more than a simple missing persons case, the revelation thrusting them into the middle of something much bigger than they could have ever imagined.
A discovery worth unfathomable millions.
And like the Nazis, there are those today who will stop at nothing to possess what they have found.
Atlantis Lost (also by Kennedy)
WILL THE MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN HISTORY BE LOST ONCE AGAIN?
After an earthquake strikes the Azores, a discovery of unimaginable importance is made just off the coast, sending Archaeology Professor James Acton and his wife racing across the Atlantic to confirm the findthe lost city of Atlantis.
But they arent the first there, and those who arrived before them will stop at nothing to prevent anyone from discovering their true purpose, and it has nothing to do with the preservation of the past, but everything to do with the destruction of our future.
