NEW YORK, July 25, 2012 — It's "Da Vinci Code" meets "Syriana" …with a few extra death threats thrown in.
But is THE LAST MESSIAH pure disinformation planted by the CIA, the Israeli Mossad, British MI 6 or Iranian intelligence …
Or the ravings of a lunatic …
Or the truth about an ancient conspiracy manipulating today's Arab spring, Israel's fear of Iran's nuclear program, and religious war and economic chaos worldwide?
Whatever the truth, it comes to us wrapped in award-winning author V.S. Marlowe's masterfully written new Middle East page-turner, THE LAST MESSIAH, http://www.amazon.com/kindle/dp/B008NR1NQW/ref=rdr_kindle_ext_eos_detail (Sinbad Books Kindle edition, US$9.99).
A video trailer on YouTube gives a hint of what's inside THE LAST MESSIAH at http://youtu.be/C-P0ITeBxzo.
Marlowe — the pen name of an international figure who fears to put his real name to this book — claims the story was given to him by a stranger a few months ago in Dubai. Marlowe was skeptical, but the story was so compelling he couldn't put it down.
Marlowe never saw the man again, but thinks he later heard the stranger being killed in a chilling voice message left by the supposed assassins, warning Marlowe not to share the story with the world.
THE LAST MESSIAH tells of the race against time to find a priceless and scientifically advanced Persian manuscript and treasure … even as a new leader arises to unite the Middle East … and a murderous sect kills those who oppose him.
It's a story of shadowy threats, bloody ritual killings, assassinations and elaborately crafted "screens" of political and economic events that hide the wicked truth from all but a select few.
And behind and above it all is a masked, charismatic leader — the Last Messiah of the title. Will he bring peace … or a new world war?
THE LAST MESSIAH races from exotic Istanbul to ancient Persepolis in Iran and finally to the holy city of Mecca, as the whole world hangs in the balance.
Former diplomat Marlowe is an expert on the Middle East. His preceding books have drawn praise from U.S. Presidents and Middle Eastern rulers, as well as Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, The Chicago Tribune and Knight Ridder.
