Keys of Hell by Martin Fallon, Jack Higgins
Description
The third thrilling novel featuring British expatriate Paul Chavasse from New York Times bestselling author Jack Higgins.

Before government forces capture them, priests hide the carving deep in the marshes along the coast.
Now, Paul Chavasse must outrun an entire army in a race to save the priceless relic—and the lives of thousands of believers...
