The Lazarus Tree

When Ryan Parker travels to Cyprus to meet one of the leaders of XXIV, he knows she has a mission for him that must be related to the 1st century relics the group had stored in an underground vault in Jerusalem. The relic she wants him to recover is a controversial one and may still be dangerous to a certain group of people. An ancient scroll written in a vary rare script holds the key to the mystery of the relic taken from Lazarus' tree. Ryan must hire his own team led by Judith Davidson and use the skills of his friend Aubrey Patterson to solve the mystery, neutralize the 'bad guys' and keep the relic safe for its beneficial use in a surprising way.
