What if everything you think you know about Jesus is wrong In the sequel to The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail Michael Baigent reveals the truth and tackles controversial questions, such as whether or not Christ survived the crucifixion.

His bestselling book The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail (with co-authors Henry Lincoln and Richard Leigh) became an international publishing phenomenon and was one of the sources for Dan Brown's novel The Da Vinci Code. Now, with two additional decades of research behind him, Baigent's The Jesus Papers presents explosive new evidence that challenges everything we know about the life and death of Jesus.
