The Grail Conspiracies Book

A fax arrives, informing Washington consultant Greg Tapscott that he is "the butterfly about to set off a storm that spreads around the world." Greg initially assumes it's some obscure joke. But it's no joke: the friend who sent it is already dead, murdered to block the truth he uncovered.

Moments later, Greg's father calls to say that he's just been offered "the truth" about what happened to his brother, Greg's uncle, Paul Tapscott, an OSS agent missing since D-Day.

As Greg chases that elusive lead, from Washington to La Rochelle on the Atlantic coast of France, to England, the Alps, and back to Washington, he finds that, after 60 years of indifference, the CIA is suddenly interested in what happened to Paul Tapscott . . . because Paul's name has begun appearing in the "chatter" of a supposed terrorist group.

"To find the truth about your uncle," Greg is told, " you must first find what it was that he found back in 1944."

Was it, as one source says, "the most powerful weapon ever known?"

Or was it, as another suggests, "perhaps the true Holy Grail?"

BUT WHAT IS THE TRUE GRAIL?

It's not the cup from the Last Supper, nor is it, as suggested by The Da Vinci Code, the bloodline of Jesus.

Did Paul Tapscott discover the true Grail in wartime France? If he did, then what happened to him. . . and to what he found?

What other secrets are entwined within it? Who - or what groups - are determined to grab those secrets? And if they get them - what then?

Above all, what if that deeper "grail" is a coded reference to a latent power dormant within all of us? Can we tap it? What are the risks?

The Grail Conspiracies, a spiritual thriller by Michael McGaulley, is supported by online slide presentations with inspiring music, landscape images, and messages on tapping dormant human potentials at The Grail Conspiracies website.
