Description
Desde las polvorientas calles de Jerusalen hasta los pasillos oscuros del Kremlin en Moscu, La Marca lleva a los lectores por un emocionante viaje a traves de la historia, la religion y la politica, con una combinacion perfecta entre accion, suspenso y misterio que mantienen la tension hasta el final del libro. La Marca es una novela intrigante donde las paginas pasan volando, ya que entrelaza los sucesos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial con el presente en una carrera por descubrir un secreto que ha permanecido oculto por mucho tiempo y que podria cambiar el curso de la historia: se trata de un pergamino original de Juan el Apostol que contiene informacion adicional sobre el Anticristo que estuvo ausente en nuestras biblias por siglos. Alexander, monje y bibliotecario, esta a punto de ser trasladado a la camara de gas en Auschwitz, pero es secuestrado y obligado a ayudar a los alemanes a encontrar el pergamino perdido, ya que solo el sabe donde podria estar escondido. En la actualidad, Damaris McFarland, viuda y teologa especializada en las escrituras de Juan, recibe una criptica carta de un viejo amigo suplicandole que viaje a Ucrania para examinar un manuscrito antiguo que podria tener las claves para descubrir los secretos del Libro de la Revelacion. Sin embargo, durante su viaje a Kiev estalla la guerra y Damaris queda atrapada en el centro de un complot siniestro para desatar al Anticristo y tomar el control del mundo. Asi, Damaris y su amigo Jack lucharan por sobrevivir en un mundo caotico donde se cruzaran con soldados rusos, rebeldes chechenos, militantes iranies y activistas cristianos clandestinos, cada uno con sus propios planes y motivaciones. Con el destino del mundo pendiendo de un hilo, ambos iniciaran una carrera contra el tiempo para evitar que el Anticristo se levante y cumpla su destino apocaliptico.
Description
From the dusty streets of Jerusalem to the farthest corners of Uzbekistan, The Mark takes readers on an exciting journey through history, religion, and politics, offering a fascinating mix of action, suspense, and mystery that will keep them at the edge of their seat to the very last page. Prepare yourself to flick through the pages of The Mark, a thrilling novel that intertwines episodes from the Second World War and today in a race to unravel a hidden secret that could change the course of human history: an original scroll written by the apostle John, with additional information on the Antichrist, missing from our bibles for centuries. We are promptly introduced to Alexander, a monk and a librarian who, on his way to be gassed in Auschwitz, is taken and forced by the Germans to find the missing scroll, which only he knows where it might be hidden. Meanwhile, in our time, Damaris McFarland, a widowed theologist specialized in John's writings, receives a cryptic letter from an old friend, urging her to go to Ukraine and examine an old manuscript that might hold the key to unravel the secrets in the book of Revelations. But on her way to Kiev, war breaks out and Damaris is trapped in the crosshairs of a sinister plot to free the Antichrist and take over the world. As Damaris and her friend Jack fight for their lives in a crazed world, they encounter a cast of characters that includes Russian soldiers, Chechen rebels, Iranian militants, and clandestine Christian activists, each with their own agendas and motivations. With the fate of the world at stake, they must race against the clock to stop the Antichrist from rising and fulfilling his apocalyptic purpose.
