In
1939, a team of workers beneath the Vatican unearthed an early
Christian grave. This surprising discovery launched a secret quest
that would last decades a quest to discover the long-lost burial
place of the apostle Peter. From earliest times, Christian tradition
held that Peter a lowly fisherman from Galilee, whom Christ made
leader of his Church was executed in Rome by Emperor Nero and buried
on Vatican Hill. But his tomb had been lost to history. Now, funded
anonymously by a wealthy American, a small army of workers embarked
on the dig of a lifetime. The incredible, sometimes shocking, story
of the seventy-five-year search and its key players had never been
fully told until now. The quest would pit one of the twentieth
century's most talented archaeologists a woman against top Vatican
insiders. The Fisherman's Tomb is a story
of the triumph of faith and genius against all odds.
