The King's Ransom - The Veritas Codex Series, #7 - E-book - ePub

Lauren Grayson went looking for Bigfoot, UFOs, and even pirates. But now, evil forces will use any means to destroy her. Dr. Lauren Grayson is determined to see the voodoo priest, Papa Dauphine, brought to justice for the attempted murder of Rowan, her husband and co-host of The Veritas Codex television show. But Dauphine aligns himself with Lauren's mortal enemy, Enlil, creating an overpowering alliance. As he gathers his forces, Enlil seems poised to topple the great peace accord.
With his pawns in the Middle East, Enlil's forces use Rowan to find an ancient weapon that could destroy not only the accord but the entire world-or give Enlil the power to control it. Isolated from her husband, Lauren works to protect her family as dark forces close in. But she also finds unlikely allies. The more she investigates, the more she becomes convinced that although Enlil wants the world, he first wants what is most precious to her-Rowan.
And he will stop at nothing until Rowan has been eliminated. Can Lauren defeat a god, prevent him from gaining control of an ancient weapon of apocalyptic power, and save her husband? Is love enough to prevent the collapse of the greatest peace accord ever brokered? And if peace fails, can chaos be far behind?Uncover the truth in The King's Ransom!
