About this listen

The Shroud of Turin, the burial cloth believed to bear the image of Jesus Christ after the crucifixion, has been pronounced a fake by an antiquities expert.

But if that’s true, then where is the authentic shroud of Christ?

In this next Phoenix Quest adventure, Simon Kessler sends Thalia Phoenix and her cousin, Casey, to a New York museum to examine the writing on a papyrus document.

However, before they can carry out their assignment, Thalia and Casey are kidnapped by a villain who demands that she locate the authentic shroud—Casey will be held hostage until Phoe finds it.

Forced to work with a team her kidnapper chose, Phoe must decipher ancient clues and travel to international destinations with her captors to search for the shroud.

Meanwhile, Simon sends other team members to rescue the missing Thalia and Casey, but where have they been taken? And will Phoe find the authentic shroud of Christ before it’s too late?

Thank goodness this was a free listen on Audible Plus.

For a book that is only 3 hours long, this felt like 30. It seemed to drag on forever.

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.
