In 2013, I rewrote The Quest and doubled its length, making it, I hope, a far better story than the original, without deviating from the elements that made the story so powerful and compelling when I first wrote it. In other words, what made The Quest worth rewriting remains, and whatever is changed is for the better.\u003cbr\u003eI was happy and excited to have this opportunity to rewrite and republish what I consider my first \"big\" novel, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did when I first wrote it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBOOK DESCRIPTION: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA sweeping adventure that's equal parts thriller and love story, Nelson DeMille's newest novel takes the reader from the war torn jungles of Ethiopia to the magical city of Rome.\u003cbr\u003eWhile the Ethiopian Civil War rages, a Catholic priest languishes in prison. Forty years have passed since he last saw daylight. His crime? Claiming to know the true location of Christ's cup from the Last Supper. Then the miraculous happens - a mortar strikes the prison and he is free! \u003cbr\u003eOld, frail, and injured, he escapes to the jungle, where he encounters two Western journalists and a beautiful freelance photographer taking refuge from the carnage. As they tend to his wounds, he relates his incredible story. \u003cbr\u003eMotivated by the sensational tale and their desire to find the location of the holiest of relics, the trio agrees to search for the Grail. \u003cbr\u003eThus begins an impossible quest that will pit them against murderous tribes, deadly assassins, fanatical monks, and the passions of their own hearts.\u003cbr\u003eTHE QUEST is suspenseful, romantic, and filled with heart-pounding action. Nelson DeMille is at the top of his game as he masterfully interprets one of history's greatest mysteries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNelson DeMille is a former U.S. Army lieutenant who served in Vietnam and is the author of nineteen acclaimed novels, including the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestsellers \u003ci\u003eNight Fall, Plum Island, The Gate House, The Lion\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Panther\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eRadiant Angel\u003c\/i\u003e.
