Relic of Time: The Rosary Chronicles

The McInerny wit and seemingly endless data base exhilarate. He is masterful in any venue, be it bloodless murders on the Notre Dame campus or exploring the mysteries and miracles of the Catholic Church and international governments. Really difficult to do anything but read when there is a new McInerny novel to lose one's self in. Relic of Time is the second in his "Rosary Chronicles" and I can't wait for the next one. McInerny is one of America's finest contemporary authors.

The Virgin Mary made a visit to a poor man in Mexico 500 years ago. This man was wearing a very special cloak that included a picture of the Holy Mother and roses. This garment has gone missing. In an attempt to uncover the truth, Vincent starts looking for clues. What he finds is a huge mass of lies that has been covered up for centuries. I love a good conspiracy theory. Ralph is a talented writer that can capture an audience in the matter of seconds. This is a masterpiece.
