When the world's last reservoir runs dry, Israeli intelligence analyst Yael Berger uncovers a four-thousand-year-old secret buried beneath the Temple Mount — a secret that links the global energy crisis to a prophecy too dangerous to be remembered, and to a network of believers who never stopped waiting. From the author of Les Gardiens de la Faille and The Tehran Protocol — a thriller for readers of Daniel Silva, Steve Berry, and Glenn Cooper. Where ancient memory collides with modern intelligence. Where the next war is decided not in the Pentagon but in a Jerusalem basement no map will admit exists. Crude Awakening is the kind of spiritual thriller that keeps you reading past three a.m. and praying when you finally close the book. A David Goldberg novel. Éditions Gueoula — the home of Torah-grounded thriller fiction.
