"The Ephesian Artifacts is a blend of history, action and adventure featuring the death of Cleopatra, the fall of Saigon, and the search for artifacts hidden beneath the sands of the ancient city of Ephesus, Turkey. The race for the priceless artifacts pits the Black Pope (head of the Jesuits) against modern-day Amazons and artifact seekers from Austria and the United States. The bones of the Virgin Mary, the Artemis star, and the writings of Jesus are believed to have been hidden centuries ago in Ephesus, which is visited by over a million tourists each year. Former active duty army officer Frank Scott is settling into his new career as a lawyer and into his intriguing and museum-like rented office. He learns the office owners, Jay and Ruff, are away on a quest to recover an antique clay jar stolen from an archaeological dig on Ephesus. Did the missing jar contain clues about the hiding place of ancient relics? And now Jay himself is missing. Unwittingly, Scott enters into a deadly mystery involving the secret cults of the Virgin Mary and Artemis, the followers of the Black Pope, modern day Amazons, lost relics and secrets long buried in the sands that cover the legendary city of Ephesus. Scott too is drawn to Ephesus and to the greatest unveiling in history."--Amazon.com, viewed January 25, 2016.
