Summary
The kidnapping of the Pope....
The heist of the spear that pierced Christ's side during the crucifixion....
The rise of the Neo-Nazi Fourth Reich....
The only man who can stop it all is adventurer Chase Baker.
After surviving a bloody run-in with ISIS-sympathizing bandits in the middle of Morocco’s Sahara Desert, adventurer and Renaissance man Chase Baker finds himself in the presence of a Vatican priest who desperately needs his help. One of the church’s great relics has been stolen by a surviving member of the Nazi SS. A man by the name of Adolf Rickman. The relic is none other than the Spear of Longinus. The very weapon that pierced Jesus Christ’s side while he hung from the cross on Golgotha. If Chase can’t recover the spear, it will be used by Rickman and his neo-Nazi cohorts to create a brand new evil Fourth Reich.
One thing stands in Rickman’s way however. The spear is not complete. Its tip has been broken off. The power of the spear can only be accessed with the tip when it is once again reunited with its whole. But who is the keeper of the spear tip? The Papal Father himself. So what does this mean for Chase? It means that not only must he recover the spear, he must prevent the Pope from being kidnapped by a band of 21st Century Nazis bent on taking over the world.
Now, along with the help of a beautiful and sexy Vatican archivist and a chain-smoking priest, Chase Baker travels to Italy, the Vatican, Germany and points in between in search of the one relic that can either save mankind, or obliterate it.
For fans of Russell Blake, Clive Cussler, Dan Brown, Boyd Morrison, and Brad Thor comes another full-length, hair-raising Chase Baker action/adventure from New York Times and USA Today best-selling ITW Thriller Award Winner Vincent Zandri. Filled with romance, suspense, intrigue, and just plain fun, Chase Baker and the Spear of Destiny is one wild ride.

An exciting action filled plot with a great lead
I love Chase as a main character. A smart guy who can pretty much do anything and sort of knows it. The narrator’s performance hits him perfectly which is especially important given the way it’s written.
The story is really good. There’s twists and turns to the plot a pace that never lets up but never goes too fast either. Just the right amount of action and story. The narrator once again really compliments that sense of pace and story.
It’s a stand-alone book in terms of the way the story plays out which is always nice. I really loved the story. It’s well written with great ideas and descriptions of the environment and it moves along very well.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Even nomads have cell phones nowadays.
There is a legend that the spear which pierced the side of Jesus during the crucification is the ultimate weapon, and another, continuing the myth, that Hitler and the others sharing his Berlin bunker, killed themselves and their families within an hour of it being placed in his hands. But to fulfill its full power, the spearhead has to be complete not, as it currently exists, with a broken tip kept by the Pope himself whilst the main part languishes in archival imprisonment.
Someone wants to get that spear and reunite tip and body. Someone is prepared to do anything to do this. And Chase Baker is out to stop it from happening.
Author Vincent Zandri's tales are always exciting, intriguing, informative and written with humour. This is no exception being a dazzling cartoon-style colouration of character, plot and location with a very sensory visit to the Sahara as well as Florence and Rome.Mostly written in the first person present, Chase Baker - archaeologist, adventurer and best selling author - is sardonic, egotistical and, if not brave then determined. Andrew Werhlen portrays him to perfection, as always: his fast paced reading echoing the quick, snappy dialogue with good intonation and appropriate expression. His voicings of the other protagonists is also good, distinctive and accented.
This is another completely stand alone fun book in this exciting series. I was fortunate in being gifted a complementary copy of The Spear of Destiny at my request, by the rights holder, via Audiobook Boom. Thank you. Good story, good narration - recommended.to all adventure fans.
