"When historian Cameron Thorne is hired to raise a Roman-era ship off the coast of Massachusetts, he finds himself in unexpected danger… Can he unravel a far-reaching mystery with deadly global consequences?" Because archaeology routinely has life-threatening global consequences. Yawn. Could it not have been pitched just a shade lower? This isn't fiction; it's fantasy.

The Pillars of Enoch by David S Brody
Talking of tired plots: "After telling historian Cameron Thorne about a hidden, ancient stone tablet, an elderly man is murdered." No. There's nothing in any ancient stone tablet that can be Earth-shattering, or that can bring down a religion (short of all its adherents committing suicide), or that is even remotely problematic for the modern world. It's bullshit, and this storyline has been cloned far too many times. Yawn.
