The Book of Lies by Brad Meltzer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is an action/adventure thriller where innocent people are sucked into a search for an ancient relic.

In the Biblical story of Cain and Abel there is no mention of the murder weapon that Cain used to kill Abel. According to some ancient legends, the weapon was a book. This story picks up the search in Florida and travels to Cleveland, OH and the birthplace of the Superman comics.

Murder, mystery, intrigue, betrayal, secrets, relationships--all in the course of the quest for Cain's murder weapon and the "mark" that God left on him.

I appreciated that this adventure tale was told with little or no foul language and that the violence portrayed was within the context of the story.

This book belongs to me and was purchased at Dollar Tree.
