Resumen del Editor
An absolutely gripping Templar conspiracy thriller, perfect for fans of Mario Reading, Dan Brown and Scott Mariani.
An ancient sect. A modern mystery. The most dangerous secret ever unearthed.
Antiquarian bookseller Robin Jessop has acquired a strange medieval volume. What appears to be a book is a cleverly disguised safe, in which she finds a single rolled parchment, written in code. For encryption expert David Mallory, the text is impenetrable. Until an invaluable clue opens the door to a conspiracy, stretching back seven centuries. Now Jessop and Mallory find themselves on a desperate hunt that could change history, topple an empire and bury them both alive. Because soon they’re not only the hunters. They’re also the hunted.

Fatima, Portugal, 1917: The Virgin Mary appears to three peasant children, sharing with them three secrets, two of which are soon revealed to the world. The third secret is sealed away in the Vatican, read only by popes, and not disclosed until the year 2000. When revealed, its quizzical tone and anticlimactic nature leave many faithful wondering if the church has truly unveiled all of the Virgin Mary's words or if a message far more important has been left in the shadows.

But ignoring the call is not an option. What Nate had hoped would be a simple mission turns into something much more sinister, when he discovers a wide-reaching evil, festering in a small Northern California town. To confront it, he will need all the skills he’s learned working in the shadow world.

Matthew Riker keeps to himself, doesn't cause trouble, and never talks about his past. But after a chance encounter with a woman and a small child on the run, Riker will have to make a choice: use his hard-won skills to protect two innocent victims, or stay in the safety of his quiet life. What follows is an adrenaline-soaked thrill ride that will take Riker on a cross-country chase, through the seedy underbelly of a New York criminal empire, and into the darkest places of the human heart.

Historia
An ancient secret means the difference between life or death in this chilling thriller. When the body of a poetry professor is found tortured in a deserted barn outside Florence, Inspector Perini is assigned to the case. No murder of passion, it is clearly a professional job. When, hours later, thieves break into Dante’s cenotaph, it seems the two crimes may be connected by some missing verses from the Divine Comedy. They could contain a code so valuable someone is willing to murder for it. But who? And why?

Fatima, Portugal, 1917: The Virgin Mary appears to three peasant children, sharing with them three secrets, two of which are soon revealed to the world. The third secret is sealed away in the Vatican, read only by popes, and not disclosed until the year 2000. When revealed, its quizzical tone and anticlimactic nature leave many faithful wondering if the church has truly unveiled all of the Virgin Mary's words or if a message far more important has been left in the shadows.

Absurd
I tried to enjoy this book. I love stories about regular people getting caught up in mysteries. But...
It started off well enough, And I was even ready to excuse the preposterous notion that a middle aged female antiquarian book seller could break the wrist, separate the shoulder and disable two large professional hit men, But while they were immobilizing said hit men her partner says "the law always favors the perpetrators." (The fuck you say??) This being the reason they didn't immediately call the police. And then he makes a comment about the fact that, by taking the pistol off of their would be assassins, they would do time for possessing that gun because Britain is not a free place where everyone apparently can't be armed to the teeth like in the freedom loving USA where you can be shot for looking at someone the wrong way, etc. Well, that was the implication anyway.
So then, after escaping from their would be killers the two decide to simply get a hotel and try and solve the mystery rather than doing the completely rational thing of heading to a police station and explaining that people are trying to kill them. Even IF (and that's a big if) there is some misunderstanding with the cops about the whole convoluted nature of the events there would be no safer place to try and figure out what the hell is going on than comfortably ensconced in a police station.
I see what he was going for. The author that is. He wants a Hitchcockian thriller where there is no safe place, on the run, etc., Something in the mode of DaVinci Code and so on. But the clown couldn't even be bothered to come up with a reasonable premise for why they SHOULD be on the run. Just something about the coddled nature of killers and the oppressed victims of violent crime in the British judicial system or some such bullshit. Beyond absurd. Even if there is some urban legend about some ridiculous event like the character Mallory suggests, it's really a class thing. The middle class book seller and independently wealthy IT tech would have nothing to worry about. If anyone thinks differently they need to get their heads out of their asses and OFF of the internet.
Save your money and time. Suspension of disbelief is one thing. Suspension of logic and humanity are another.
PS. The narrator needs to learn the difference between an Italian and a Russian accent. Italians use both definite and indefinite articles, Russians do not. It was not convincing and just one more reason this sucked.

So much unnecessary detail
No comparison to a Dan Brown novel. The mundane details in this book are exhausting and so unnecessary. The only reason I continued to listen was to learn more history about the Templar knights, which turned out to be pretty sparse and repetitive.
