Hands of God

The earth, however reluctantly, yields its secrets to archaeologists of Josiah Adams's caliber. But when an unorthodox book dating from a forsaken past comes to light during one of his digs, bureaucracies and social critics prove less accommodating. Josiah's discovery pulls back the curtain on a lost age when truth was true and lies were not, when self-interest had its limits and faith had not yet been perverted and discredited. But is anyone prepared to reconsider that the past may have been more honorable than anyone wants to remember and more noble than the world that has replaced it? Or is the world still unprepared for the counterrevolutionary ideas the earth-shattering book reveals?
