The Judas Conspiracy
** A fast-paced thriller from Amazon bestselling author Robert B. Williams **
An armed assault force raids the marble halls of the British Museum. The target – the most heinous relic of all time – the last surviving coin of the blood money paid to Judas Iscariot for his betrayal of Christ.
For over a thousand years the cursed pieces of silver cut a swath of famine, pestilence and ruinous destruction wherever they were carried. To save humanity from the malevolent power of the coins, the Knights Templar were given a Papal Blessing and sent on a pilgrimage to the holy lands to find and hide the thirty pieces of silver.
A sinister organization has unlocked a chilling secret—the ability to control the power of the coin and use it as a terrifying weapon, posing the greatest threat to mankind in history.
Sanford Carter, antiquities thief and ladies’ man, has been ensnared by the secret service and forced to execute a daring burglary on their behalf. His mission is simple – steal the coin first.
Sarah Hudson, the studious and law-abiding archaeologist who doesn’t believe in curses, only science, is in the wrong place at the wrong time and refuses to hand over the coin or allow Carter to get away with his bold crime.
With ruthless dark forces closing in, the brazen thief and the scholarly archaeologist must unlock the hidden history of the coin if they are to safeguard humanity from its evil curse.
From the cobbled streets of London to the spectacular volcanic landscapes of Iceland, The Judas Conspiracy sets a cracking pace from the start and never lets up.
For fans of James Rollins, Matthew Reilly, Michael C. Grumley, A.G. Riddle, Rob Jones, Matt Rogers, James D. Prescott, Brad Thor, Douglas E. Richards, Clive Cussler and David Baldacci

Okay, but not great. A bit too much stereotyping of Sarah, the museum researcher, in the first couple of chapters. A few twists later in the novel kept it entertaining.

After reading Ice Fortress, which I thoroughly enjoyed, I was excited when I saw this author had a new release so purchased it immediately. I'm always nervous reading a second book by a new author, when I loved the first one so much, but there was no need to be, as this is brilliant. It's another fast paced, action filled book that keeps you turning pages to read what's going to happen next. I found the historical elements very interesting and well researched and I loved the action and adventure through various countries. The lead characters are strong and well developed, so I felt like I was in the story with them, helping them save the world from the bad guys. The dialogue is very well written, especially between Sarah and Carter and I loved the one liners which add a little humour from time to time to lighten things up. Perfect balance of action, interesting historical facts, adventure, mystery, and a touch of romance. Highly recommend, and I am looking forward to more books by this author.

A page turning, thrill-a-minute read, that grips you from the opening and never slows down.
Well written and edited, it was a fun to learn a few things along the way and it's clear the author doesn't skimp on the research that is skillfully woven into the story line.
Great cast of well developed characters and a particularly nasty antagonist blended with some interesting backdrops made for a fun and entertaining read.
Hope we see more from this author based on what I've read in Ice Fortress and The Judas Conspiracy.

A lot of action
Good Story, interesting characters, I look forward to a sequel.
The Templers are always an interesting subject. I often wonder if they’re real. There is so much written about them, most of which is very interesting.

A excellent action novel.
While there was the expected good guys win bad guys lose, the writing was good and moved ahead logically. It could have been a little more romantic with the main two characters. However, I was able to visualize all the action. Good read.

Another action/adventure romp around Europe and England with an art thief and an unsuspecting archeologist as they meet in a double attempt to steal one of the 13 pieces of silver that the archeologist has been testing out of a batch of old coins. Several agencies are after the coin, mostly bad ones and our heroes are in a mad scramble to stay ahead of them (and Alive). They are also in the hunt for the spear used on the hill at the crucifixion which is supposed to interact with the coin. Twists and turns and a surprise turn of events before this one concludes.
