I couldn't get into this at all, doesn't reflect on the book though, I'm finding it hard to get into any book at the moment.....

From Amazon.co.uk-
'Shots rang out across the cathedral. Sporadic. Cries suddenly silenced. Death stalked the cathedral as the monks slaughtered the few remaining survivors... All for a sack of bones. Why? Why steal the bones of the Magi?' When a group of parishioners is burned to death in a German cathedral, the US sends in Sigma force. For this tragedy is more than a case of arson - someone has stolen the priceless treasure stored in the cathedral's golden reliquary: the bones of the biblical Three Kings. Commander Gray Pierce leads a team on the hunt for the Royal Dragon Court, a clandestine aristocratic fraternity of alchemists that dates back to the Middle Ages and seeks to establish a new world order using the mystical bones. Pierce and his team follow a trail that leads from Europe's Gothic cathedrals through the remnants of the seven wonders of the ancient world to a mystical place where science and religion unite to unleash a threat not seen since the beginning of time itself...

Enjoy!

This is the first book from this author, and I was very surprised, and throughly enjoyed. In my opinion a better story than the Da Vinci Code, This thriller has it all, espionage, revenge, romance, conspiracy, plus hidden mysteries of the Catholic church. It does seem that the Catholic church are taking a beating in novels of late, but at least in this one, they are the good guys....well some of them are...don't want to spoil it.
Altogether an excellent book to spend Sunday afternoon in the sun, with a glass of wahtever takes your fancy. Well worth a read
