A fascinating book that travels effortlessly from biblical times to tomorrow, with stops in Israel, Europe, Africa, and the Diamond Dealers' Club on New York City's 47th Street. As Nebuchadnezzar''s hordes approach Jerusalem, sacred objects are hidden-the Tablets of Law, the Ark and its cover, the golden cherubim, and the breastplate of the High Priest, bearing twelve precious stones, one from each tribe. The stone from the tribe of Zebulon is a great yellow diamond. This novel is the story of how three of the world's great religions compete to gain the diamond as desperately as they have strug.
