内容简介 Crusader Gold is the stunning follow up to 2005's bestselling debut Atlantis. For many it is the Jewish menorah, the huge golden candlestick looted by the Romans in AD 70 then carried to Constantinople. Now, nobody knows where it is. Some think it survived and is concealed in the Vatican. Some think it took an altogether more extraordinary turn, at the beginning of history itself ...Jack Howard is the only man who can find out. But the clock is ticking against him. The quest to find out takes him from the fall of the Roman Empire to the last days of Nazi power - and uncovers a trail more thrilling than anyone could have imagined...

Synopsis The elusive Crusader Gold: the greatest prize missing from the final bloody conflict of the Crusades. For many it is the Jewish menorah, the huge golden candlestick looted by the Romans in AD 70 when they sacked the Temple in Jerusalem and marched through Rome in triumph, then carried to Constantinople. Now, nobody knows where it is. Some think it survived and is concealed in the Vatican. Some think it took an altogether more extraordinary turn, at the beginning of history itself ...Jack Howard is the only man who can find out. But the clock is ticking against him. Will ancient history give up one of its darkest secrets? The quest to find out takes him from the fall of the Roman Empire to the last days of Nazi power - and uncovers a trail more thrilling than anyone could have imagined.
