A Thriller

De: Steve Fisher

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A thriller, The Carswell Covenant combines Egyptian history and archaeology, adventure, and mystery with real-life and fictional characters in a manner that will challenge the reader to separate fact from fiction. In 1335 BC, after his final pleading with pharaoh, Moses is given a covenant to the Holy Land. In 1922, the author's grandfather, real-life University of Pennsylvania archaeologist Clarence Fisher, finds a document in King Tut’s tomb that could change the course of history. In 2001, a programmer at Carswell Bible College finds an overlooked passage in the Dead Sea Scrolls that mentions pharaoh’s covenant, later called the Carswell Covenant, that also could change the course of history. In 2001, the author found a mention of his long-deceased archaeologist grandfather, Clarence Fisher, in a novel. With his brother and with a beautiful doctoral candidate, the three Penn graduates traveled to Egypt in 2002 for a 16-day sightseeing vacation. But that trip, along with a coded street map from his grandfather, triggered a terrifying series of events. Involving Egyptian terrorists and the Mossad, the lives of all three were threatened. But important truths were revealed, about his grandfather, King Tut, the Pharaoh of the Exodus, and even the Ark of the Covenant. From Egypt and Jerusalem, in both Old Testament times and the 1920s and 1940s, through a small college in Georgia in 2001, through the streets of Cairo and a city that is a hotbed of terrorist activity, through the hills of the Valley of the Kings, and onto a luxury cruise boat riddled with danger, The Carswell Covenant follows three ordinary people through unexpected dangers and unnerving coincidences. The author is a retired IT professional who received a degree in electrical engineering from the University of Pennsylvania in 1964.
