The Word

The word is one of Wallaces most ambitious and controversial works. In the ruins of an ancient Roman seaport, an archeologist discovers a faded Aramaic text-possibility a gospel written by Jesus Christs younger brother, James-the original source of the four gospels of the New Testament

At the heart of Wallaces tale of the struggle to prove The Words authenticity is the life of Stephen Randall, a cynical, successful public relations man who has been given the job of selling the New Testament to the world. In the midst of riveting international intrigue and danger, Randall seeks in The Word a last chance to save himself from his own spiritual crisis, by seeking meaning in an empty life

In Wallaces surprise ending, readers will find themselves stunned and reeling, left to draw their own conclusions about the true nature of… The Word.
