A sacred relic. A hidden agenda. A race to protect history itself.
Thalia “Phoe” Phoenix thought she’d seen everything—until she’s recruited by a Vatican emissary to authenticate what might be the real Shroud of Turin. But this mission is no quiet inspection. The relic has vanished… and the trail of clues points to a conspiracy stretching across continents and centuries.
As Phoe and Peter Kellerman chase the truth from Rome to the highlands of Scotland, they’re hunted by enemies who will kill to possess the shroud—and the power it may contain. Legends claim it bears not only the image of Christ, but the secrets of resurrection itself.
To save the sacred, Phoe must face betrayal, faith, and a truth that could shake the foundations of belief.
History is written by the victors. This time, it’s being erased.

Because this is narrated by Virtual Voice, it's difficult to know whether to assign blame to bad writing, or to the robot narration.
Some is certainly the author's fault, though. A lot of the book is people arguing back and forth - some about the accuracy of biblical accounts, some about how to locate and rescue the kidnapped main character. VERY LITTLE ACTUALLY HAPPENS.
This is my first experience with this author, and it is likely to be the last.
Regarding the narration: I know not all Virtual Voice narration programs are the same, but they do seem to share many of the same problems (misplaced inflection or lacking inflection entirely, no differentiation between speakers, etc.) but this one really grated on me after just a few minutes. I honestly don't know why I pushed through to the end.
This narration program's tone would seem more suitable for narrating children's books, except that would be especially cruel to children.
If you want a *good* series in this genre, check out Andy McDermott's Nina Wilde/Eddie Chase series.
