New to me - This is only my second book by Alex Archer and my second Worldwide Library/Gold Eagle book so I'm still calling it new to me on both counts
Annja is still reeling from teh news that she is the chosen successor to Joan of Arc herself in the quest for good triumphing over evil but she can't rest. Rumors abound that the fabled jar of SOlomon has been found... the very one in which he trapped all the demons after using them to build his temple. Now Annja journeys across Europe to get the answers.
Several others are also interested in gaining the jar however, and the power it presumably gives to its owner. There is a British cult who wants it to return the world to how it was before humans sullied it. A popular televangelist longs to use the jar to instill himself as a global leader of religion. And the Russian mob wants it for their own unknown reasons. Who will find the jar and what will they do with it once they acquire it? Annja will do whatever it takes to preserve it for the great archeologial find that it is.
I'm loving this series! It certainly heled that I had so much driving to do this past week to give me time to go through them so quickly. While I'd have liked to see a little more in each book about Joan of Arc and the reasons for Annja's ties to the sword, I'm enjoying the books for the thrilling adventures they are.
