Foretold By Thunder

When journalist Jake Wolsey stumbles on a declassified file showing Winston Churchill's interest in the ancient Etruscan civilisation his curiosity brings peril in its wake. He soon attracts the unlikely attention of alluring archaeologist Florence Chung - and that of MI6. As the two are pursued across Europe and Africa in search of the Etruscans' sacred text, danger closes in and more questions than answers arise. Are there powers in the sky modern science has yet to understand? Could the ancients predict the future? And what really explains the rise of Rome, of Nazi Germany, and the ebb and flow of history itself? In a thrilling race against time and enemies known and unknown, Jake Wolsey fears the survival of modern civilisation depends on his ability to stay one step ahead of his adversaries.
