From New York Times best-selling author James Rollins and award-winning suspense novelist Rebecca Cantrell comes a disturbing story of vengeance, bloodshed, and creatures that prowl the night.
In the haunted, war-torn highlands of Afghanistan, amid the ruins of Shahr-e-Gholghol, an archaeology team is massacred in the night. Sergeant Jordan Stone and his crack forensic team are called in to examine the site, to hunt for the perpetrators of this horrific act. But the discovery of a survivor - a child of 10 - will shatter all the team knows about life and death. Among the crumbling bones of dead kings, something hoary and murderous stirs out of the ancient past, lurching forward to claim vengeance on those still living.
Included with this thrilling story is a sneak peek at The Blood Gospel, where the further exploits of Sergeant Stone and his team will be revealed.

This was another short story that I bought on Audible the other week when they were having their massive sale on novellas and short stories. I think that I have only read one or two books by this author and they have all been shorts. This story, if I understand correctly, is the prequel for a new series by Mr. Rollins called The Order of the Sanguines. Since I am not already a reader of Mr. Rollins, I do not know if these characters are new characters or if they are already existing characters that we now get to see in a different story arc.
This book introduces us to Sgt. Jordan Stone and his team as they are sent into the desert of Afghanistan to investigate the(supposed) deaths of a group of archeologists. Unfortunately, there are not any bodies left that might help them figure out what happened. I immediately like Sgt Stone and the circumstances surrounding the mystery immediately made me curious. There is just enough of the "woo-woo" along side the archeological information to make things interesting. The narrator - Christian Baskous- did a fine job which is saying a lot because there were different accents and a couple of different languages thrown in as well.
The story itself was a little over 2 hours and plenty enough time to get the reader interested, build the drama and then have a fairly dramatic climax. I am now curious to find out what trouble is up next for Sgt Stone and his team.
Very very interesting.....
