"Archaeologist Nicole Berman is the first woman to be awarded a permit to lead a dig in Saudi Arabia. Nicole has a hunch that the artifacts she hopes to discover have the power to rewrite world history. She assembles a team that will ultimately surprise - and in some cases - betray her. Will she find what she believes to be the key to unifying the three major religions before a dangerous enemy gets to her? Meanwhile, in a parallel storyline, readers are launched back to ancient Ur where young Abram is sent to learn from his forebears, who tell him firsthand stories of being on the ark during the Great Flood. How will Abram cope with his heritage of multiple faiths and what will he teach his descendants?"-- Provided by publisher.
