Description
The authors of this book claim that the Turin shroud is in fact genuine and was the subject of a Vatican plot in 1988 to prove the shroud as a fake. The shroud is said to be proof that Jesus was alive when he was taken down from the cross and placed in the tomb, thus throwing doubt on the Resurrection.

A thoroughly enjoyable ramble through history that was written with an eye toward the dramatic. The authors have set out not to disprove that the Shroud of Turin was the burial cloth of Jesus, but to prove he didn't die and the resurrection, as it is believed in, was a fake.
