The Church insisted it didn't exist.

They lied.

They said it was just a Masonic legend.

It wasn't.

A two thousand year old secret...

Revealed.

The coded journal of Benjamin Franklin. A hidden map. A legendary gospel. These are the first pieces to an ancient puzzle so powerful it could destroy the very foundation of Christianity.

Once before, Joseph Koster unearthed one of the Church's most deeply buried secrets...and it almost cost him his life. But some treasures are too hard to resist. And as Koster puts the pieces of Franklin's puzzle together, he discovers something even more startling...and infinitely more deadly.

Now, along with beautiful Indian electrical engineer Savita Sajan, Koster must race to decode Franklin's journal before it falls into the hands of those who would do anything, kill anyone to suppress it. But in a world of secret societies, ancient conspiracies and Masonic puzzles, locating the prize is one thing...staying alive, another.

For as Koster and Sajan are about the learn, the same key that unlocks the doorway to Heaven...could open the portals of Hell.

THE WAVE

Kirkus said, "Sandom’s strength lies in the verve of his story, with writing that has both muscle ... (and) brains ... Races from improbable to crazywild, all in good fun, with Sandom always one step ahead ... A story with enough manic energy to be worthy of a nuclear explosion."

When Cryptanalyst John Decker of the FBI is assigned to the Joint Terrorist Task Force in New York, he has no idea he is about to be thrust into a deadly plot of eco-terrorism masterminded by El Aqrab, the Scorpion, a diabolical killer recently arrested in Tel Aviv.

Following the theft of 8 kilos of Highly Enriched Uranium, an ultimatum is issued to the West: Release El Aqrab or a nuclear bomb will be detonated. But, at the last moment, El Aqrab escapes...and the authorities never get the bomb.

While Homeland Security is convinced it's headed for New York, only Agent Decker -- assisted by brilliant and beautiful oceanographer Emily Swenson -- believes the bomb’s true destination is La Palma, in the remote Canary Island chain.

Now, Decker and Swenson have less than six hours to prove their theory, defuse the bomb, and prevent a mega-tsunami from annihilating the Eastern Seaboard.

J.G. Sandom's most recent TV interview on "Breezin' with Bierman" is available at YouTube.  See the author read from THE WAVE, and chat about his other recent publications.

GOSPEL TRUTHS

Booklist called GOSPEL TRUTHS, "a spendid, tautly woven thriller ... (and) an intelligent mystery of tremendous spiritual and literary depth."  Library Journal said," By turns contemplative, descriptive, and emotive, this mixture of mystery and intrigue reveals intense preparation and fine writing."  And Mostly Murder characterized it, "A fascinating mystery ... captivating and engrossing."

When City of London Police Inspector Nigel Lyman is assigned to investigate the death of a notorious Italian Banker found hanging under Blackfriars Bridge in London, the inquiry leads him to the Amiens and Chartres cathedrals in France in pursuit of a shadowy arch criminal -- leader of a corrupt Masonic lodge, the I Four -- intent on acquiring an ancient Gnostic Gospel whose discovery would undermine the very foundations of Christianity.

THE HUNTING CLUB

Scott Turow, author of Presumed Innocent and Ordinary Heroes, called THE HUNTING CLUB, "A gripping story, well-told ... not only a tale of murder and betrayal, but an intelligent exploration of issues of male identity."  Kirkus Reviews termed the book, "A Big Apple Deliverance, endowing New York culture with all the corrosively dehumanizing power of Dickey's wild nature ... Slickly entertaining right down to the last, inevitable twist.  (Film rights to Warner Brothers -- and there's no mystery why.)"  And Booklist said, "(Sandom) writes with stunning elegance and nearly poetic beauty ... A sure hit with any suspense reader."

Five successul New Yorkers out for a bachelor party leave their trendy restaurant for the Party Girl Lounge, then follow an especially game stripper up to her apartment -- and into a spiraling nightmare of murder and its consequences.  When John Payne comes to, the stripper is dead, and his buddies decide that instead of facing the music, they'll mop up their mess, dump the body into New York harbor, and count on the unlikelihood of anybody caring what became of a missing hooker.  They count wrong.  Slowly but surely, the ties that hold the Hunting Club together unravel, the bonds of friendship are broken, and the members of the Hunting Club start to hunt...each other.
