Great Book!

I was at the bookstore and picked up this book having never heard of Jon Land. I'm so glad I did! This book had me hooked from the start, I couldn't put it down. It is a fast-paced adventure with a lot of action. I will definitely be reading more books by Jon Land in the future!

Fantastic!!

I actually picked up this book on a whim and from the first page, I was unable to put it down. If you like Dan Browns' work, then you'll love Jon Land. I give my highest recommendations for this book...now I have to go and buy the rest of the series.

Thrilling Ride!

Jon Land has written an entertaining book starring the team of Barnea and Kamal. Called in to investigate a mass murder of civilians in the Middle East, they quickly uncover a terrorist plot that includes lost prophecies of Nostrodamus. If you enjoyed Angels and Demons, you will enjoy this.

Excellent storytelling

She was the commander of the Israeli National Police but became persona non grata in the country she loved. Ben Kamal was a former Palestinian-American detective until he realized that nothing he could do could change the political climate. Unable to stomach the hopelessness of the situation and wanting to be with his exiled lover Danielle Barnea, they accept jobs in the safety and security service of the United Nations and live together in London.They are sent to the Palestinian village of Bureij where almost a hundred residents including their United Nations teachers were massacred in what was made to look like an atrocity of the Israeli government. Ben learns that the killers were Iraqi Special Forces sent out of the country before the American led invasion. The target of the killings was the son of one of the men of the 121st Evacuation Hospital who was sent to Buchenwald who found four trunks under a mass grave. In the present, the remaining members of the 121st are being killed off one by one for what they know. Danielle and Ben soon uncover a plot that will make Sept 11 look minor.Once again Jon Land delivers an action packed thriller that takes events from today's headlines and weaves them into a terrific story. Danielle and Ben are perfectly suited for their new jobs because they are citizens of the world since no country will claim them yet they fight to make the globe a safer place to live in. Though in many ways similar to previous tales in the exciting series, THE LAST PROPHECY is an outstanding one sitting reading experience.Harriet Klausner
