"J. Christoph Amberger could teach Dan Brown a thing or two about old enmities, unholy alliances, and conspiracy theories. The Lazarus Smile has all those plot lines and more. It is a book well researched and intelligently told." --Allen Russell, Author of Exposure, The Fat Innkeeper
"Readers of Dan Brown's The DaVinci Code, Angels & Demons, and The Lost Symbol will find J. Christoph Amberger's The Lazarus Smile a terrific thriller." --Christopher Corbett, Author of Orphans Preferred, Poker Bride
Three little words, the name of a Saint, could rock the world and destroy Christianity. Worse, they endanger Sebastian Stahl's family. He has only one option: Face up to his family's terrifying past -- and face down assassins and rogue special ops.
When Stahl hid some brittle documents for an elderly neighbor, he never expected to find himself at the center of a brutal hunt for a scrap of ancient Greek papyrus.
As he pieces together its unsavory past, he uncovers a bloody conspiracy reaching back to the reign of Nero involving Emperors, Popes, saints and soldiers, and the dark, self-serving schemes of Heinrich Himmler.
A mysterious Danish-born ex-stormtrooper manages to manipulate the conflicting emotions brought on by a brush with death (and a gorgeous blonde psychiatrist) before Stahl can discover his grandfather s most closely guarded secret... and finds redemption in the taking of a human life!
