Book 2 in the bestselling Guardians Adventure series! The search for the legendary Sword of Peter.Two thousand years ago, when the Romans came to arrest Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, the disciple Peter cut off the ear of an innocent man. Jesus rebuked Peter and quickly healed the servant's ear--and the Sword of Peter took on supernatural powers.Fast forward to modern day where a Biblical archaeology quest for the Sword of Peter is imperative to both Israel and to the Christian world. It's also a race against others who would possess and use the Sword of Peter for their own purposes, if they find it first. In Summer Lee's second Biblical treasure hunt adventure, Achava, a guardian of sacred artifacts, has her Jewish heritage and her Christian faith. She also has unique DNA from her ancestor, Achsah, who lived during the time of Joshua. Like Samson in the Bible, Achava is capable of exercising supernatural strength, as well as other unusual powers.
Martial arts expert Dr. Sam Godfrey is the youngest professor retired from the Zion School for Biblical Studies. Achava previously left the Staff of Moses with him for safekeeping, and on that adventure, he fell in love with her. That path toward a romance seems forbidden because of her spiritual duties and divine destiny.A clan called the Sentinels believes that Sam has the sword. When they attack him in his home, he fights them. Using supernatural means, Achava shows up and helps him to defeat the intruders who have almost debilitated him. Now, Achava needs to take Sam to Israel to save him.
Once there, they meet up with Saeem, Achava's longtime Arab friend who is dedicated to helping her locate and protect Biblical archaeology relics.Together, the unlikely trio embarks on a whirlwind odyssey of danger that takes them to several countries in search of the Sword of Peter. But when Achava becomes separated from Sam and Saeem, all she has left is her divine mission. She needs to find the Sword of Peter--at all costs. Can an Israeli, an Arab, and an American find the Sword of Peter before the enemy does? THE SWORD OF PETER unfurls a fast-paced Biblical archaeological treasure hunt with travel, action, a spiritual quest, romance, and all the excitement that readers have come to love from the remarkable pen of acclaimed Christian author Summer Lee.
