The Illuminati Secret

Rate this book
***Don't miss the second high-octane, adrenaline-pumped, action-adventure quest in the Jed Mason thriller series!***

Former British Army Boxing Champion and MI6 operative Jed Mason is enjoying an early retirement on his Portuguese farm when he receives a telephone call informing him of the kidnap of Dr Holly Hope, an academic he worked alongside in April to locate the Ark of the Covenant.

Leaving his new life behind, he races to Paris and begins piecing together the last few moments of Holly’s life before she was snatched, but he is soon drawn into a breakneck race against time to save her life and help her complete her research.

THE ILLUMINATI SECRET pits Mason up against a horrific new enemy in a twisting, breathtaking plot encompassing secret cults, artwork looted by Nazis and one of the most revered relics of all time, but is he ready for the ultimate, shocking secret about what he and his team have been searching for?

This fast-paced, adrenaline-pumped, action-adventure thriller is an explosive mix of Reacher, Langdon and Bond and will keep you on the edge of your seat with your heart in your mouth to the very end.

Rob Jones writes an action packed story with some history. This story was an excellent read! The main characters Jed Mason and Dr. Holly Hope are racing to find the holy grail before a Satan Cult, the Lightbears, find it. Dr. Hope has to unravel clues that take them from Paris to Jerusalem. I enjoyed this story. Such an interesting spin on the quest for the Holy Grail!

Jed Mason does it again

An action packed adventure crisscrossing the world in search of religious relics. Never a dull moment as the team manages to go from one crazy crisis to another.
Great read and lot’s of fun

The Illuminati Secret

Another intriguing story... You never know who's coming after the team. Love stories about ancient religious relics and where they may be. Would recommend!!

One star; half- interesting plot but totally unrealistic and instructed timelines
Dialogue of the characters is childish and puerile
I read to the end but: Never again from this writer

Exciting

Nice details about the cities they visit in their hunt for the holy grail. Most of the book is fast paced and keeps you guessing right up to the end. Worth the read.

Fun read. Good characters although I do find when the end comes it seems quick or leaves you wondering but this might not be a bad thing.

Exciting and disappointing

Rob Jones seems to set a pattern writing a very exciting story with a disappointing ending
Let the reader learn what the mysteries.

One goal, so many moving parts!

All the favorite characters, pro and antagonist, with one specific goal and the surprise ending you don't see coming! Riveting!
