Synopsis:
A mysterious race of North American giants.
An ancient Hebrew inscription in a Cherokee burial mound.
A blood oath made by blindfolded Freemasons.
Are these three historical oddities the reason the CIA is trying to brainwash historian Cameron Thorne and his fiancée Amanda Spencer-Gunn? The answer lies buried in the legends of the Knights Templar, within the rituals of the secretive Freemasons and, most significantly of all, inside the bowels of the Smithsonian Institution. The problem for Cam and Amanda? If they go rummaging around the Smithsonian, they may find themselves buried alongside the ancient giants.

Description:
In The Oath of Nimrod, the fourth novel in David S. Brody’s “Templars in America” series, Brody continues to explore the hidden history of North America by examining ancient artifacts and sites that evidence exploration of the continent prior to Columbus. As Publisher’s Weekly writes regarding this series, “Brody does a terrific job of wrapping his research in a fast-paced thrill ride.”
This series is ideal for readers who are curious about pre-Columbian history of North America and who want to explore this history within a modern-day thriller. As Oscar Wilde wrote, and most readers of this series will agree: “Many people discovered America before Columbus, but most of them had the good sense to keep quiet about it.”
As in the prior books in this series—Cabal of the Westford Knight, Thief on the Cross, and Powdered Gold—Brody includes real images of the sites and artifacts that are used to fuel the plot and that evidence the hidden history.
