Comments

Gerry Krag: Are things in the Vatican as cut throat as portrayed in this novel? Maybe they are worse! Either way, it makes for an action filled plot with interesting characters. The locations in France, Switzerland and Italy coupled with delicious restaurant fare makes the reader want to visit these sites and enjoy the cuisine.

Gypsy Angel: Another mystery for Father Dominic to unravel with the help of his friends. After exploring one of the famous French caves and the tales
of possible Cather treasure there, so begins the hunt. A mysterious
puzzle map leads to a hidden box containing sacred items. Trying to keep this relic out of the hands of black market dealers leads to a
race across southern France. Another triumph for an entertaining historical mystery!

Phil: A good book for mystery and thrills. Likable characters and vile villains. Be sure to read the books in order.

Ray Ream: The book tests your faith with the possibilities, but you will come out on the other side. Read all three books in the series. Really well written.

FGC: Just finished book 2 straight after reading book 1 and luckily I wasn't disappointed it was just as enjoyable as book 1. I will definitely be reading more books written by Gary McAvoy.

G David Rose: First of all, the story seems to be a re-run of the first book. However it's the sub plots that bothers me. The Nazis' attempt to wipe out the Jews and in the process steal their treasures. There are characters in this book that are the good guys making sure the baddies don't walk off with the Jewish gold. The Cathars were wiped out by the Church many years ago and good guys hid the Cathar's treasures. Our hero, a member of the Church, finds the treasure and rather than making sure the baddies don't succeed in wiping out the Cathars heritage, instead completes the genocide by giving the reliquary to the Pope. It would be like someone in the future making sure the Jewish gold stays with the Nazis'. There is a Jewish researcher in the book that would have been a perfect individual to have given the reliquary to to continue the Cathars story. What a shame!

Vivienne: I thoroughly enjoyed this second book in the ‘Magdalene Chronicles’ series. As was the case with the first one, this is a phenomenal suspense thriller with an incredible storyline. A few surprises, turns, twists and a cleverly crafted narrative. I liked the historical prologue which takes us back in time and then skilfully transfers us from the 13th century religious era to the present day politics at the Vatican.

The character developments are so well rendered. It was nice to revisit our heroes Fr. Michael Dominic, Hana Sinclair, Cardinal Petrini, Dr. Ginzberg, the Swiss guards, the Pope and others. Having met them in the first book, I felt part of their team, travelling through Rome, Switzerland and France. I did not expect a Russian oligarch to be one of the new antagonists. That made it all the more nerve-racking.

This book is one of those in which you simply want to get from one chapter to the next without putting it down. The pace is dramatic and before you know it, time has just flown by. It is such a fantastic & stimulating read, a solid plot that is so plausible. You want to believe that every word is true, even if you know that part of it is...

Wile: It took a few chapters to really get into the book, but once I was able to remember who each character was and their role in the plot, I couldn’t put it down. If indeed such artifacts were sometime found, I believe it should not be kept secret.

Nadine Stanley: Gary McAvoy writes with such attention to detail - it draws you in and makes you forget it is a work of fiction and you start to believe it is fact , that's what makes it such a fascinating read . I enjoyed the Magdalene Chronicles very much .
