Overview

Three nuns are murdered in the attic of a Boston convent.
There are no witnesses.
No shell casings.
The only things missing are their rosaries.

Days later, a Boston medium claims her spirit guide has identified the killer: a broken priest with an antique revolver. A single newspaper column turns that claim into a city-wide witch hunt.

Harvard “pope whisperer” Cal Donovan and former Vatican power broker Elisabetta Celestino step into the city’s séance rooms to test the story. What they uncover is a trail of antique ballistics, buried secrets, and a generations-old vendetta that reaches back to Arthur Conan Doyle and the birth of modern Spiritualism.

To save an innocent man, Cal and Elisabetta must decide whether they are chasing a brilliant fraud who hides behind the dead, or facing something far more unsettling: the dead really are answering back.

From international bestselling author Glenn Cooper, Covenant of the Dead is a standalone Cal Donovan thriller blending historical mystery, murder, and religious intrigue for readers of Dan Brown and Steve Berry.

Review

Three nuns are murdered in the attic of a Boston convent.
There are no witnesses.
No shell casings.
The only things missing are their rosaries.

I love a tale that keeps you guessing…and then some. I enjoyed the dip into mysticism and seances. Add in the biblical references and…this will come as a surprise…Arthur Conan Doyle and you have a good read.

And that is just part of this story. Don’t forget about the murders and the innocent man that has been arrested. This is a wild ride indeed!

Need a tale that explores all options…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today.

I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review.
