RESURRECTION DAY, December 2001

by Denise Clark

Author of "Cross the Line" & "A Man's War"

            Have you ever wondered what it would be like to travel back in time and be a part of history? In this riveting tale you can, swept along with the RFC, the Recovery Force Commandoes, to raid the treasures of King Nebuchadnezzar, experience the terrifying fall of Pompeii and to battle with the Scythians…

The story is told through the eyes of Billy, one of the team members that are transported back in time for the biggest mission of their lives… and the most difficult, for they will face tests that not only measure their mettle, but their faith.

            Tom is the leader, Dixon his second in command. Enid is a valuable member as well as being Tom’s lover. In a world of growing political uncertainty, with violence between Palestine and Israel escalating at an alarming rate, the President of the United States taps the Commando team for a special task, his reasons purely political. The task? To venture into the past, to hear and record the teachings of the young Jewish man known as the Messiah. Their objective? To bring back the body of the crucified Christ.

            Tom becomes Thomas, an apostle. Enid finds a position in the home of Joseph of Arimathea. Dixon becomes a Roman soldier under the command of Flavius, and Billy guards and maintains their ‘base’ in a cave outside Jerusalem. But what starts out as a focused mission becomes much more than that for the members of the group when their sojourn into this particular past compels each of them to question their bravery, their beliefs, and their love.

            Mr. Wyckoff has written an exciting, remarkable book with rare depth of emotion and skill. His characters are extremely well defined, his style smooth and readable, and his knowledge of history extensive. This book is a future, present and historical love story filled with action and adventure, all wrapped up in a riveting, awesome read that will stay with you for a long time to come.
