Stones of Fire

Eight hundred years ago a Crusader in the Holy Land discovered a gold box. Under a veil of secrecy it was transported to England and hidden, the clues to its whereabouts embedded in sixteen cryptic lines of verse. For centuries it has been rumoured the treasure was none other than the Ark of the Covenant ...
When Edie Miller witnesses a brutal murder and the theft of an ancient relic - the Stones of Fire - her life is shattered. The cops are implicated in the murder and Edie is fast running out of places to hide. In a desperate gamble she contacts Caedmon Aisquith, friend of the murder victim and expert in ancient civilisations. Little does she realise, he's also a former MI5 officer and soon finds himself in the crosshairs too.
The two join forces, determined to understand why the Stones of Fire, rumoured to be Moses' breastplate, is so crucial. As the layers of deceit peel away, the Ark of the Covenant is revealed to be the true endgame and Edie and Caedmon must follow a trail of puzzles to find it first ... before a sinister army of mercenaries uses it to wage war on a terrifying scale.
The safety of the world depends upon it ...
