Shrouded

"Shrouded is a masterfully written mystery novel, powered by well-developed characters and a sophisticated plot. Who stole the Shroud of Turin, and what do they want with it? And who kidnapped our favorite nun, Sister Mary Llewellyn? Crispin, our anxiety-ridden but determined young sleuth, is on the case."

--David Aretha, award-winning author

"Crispin Leads is a heroine I can get behind: bold, brilliant, empathetic and intelligent. Traversing Turin and the Vatican Shrouded's heroine will leave you breathless. It's the mystery, not a man, that Crispin is out to solve."

--Bethany Hegedus is an award-winning novelist and Creative Director of The Writing Barn

"Shrouded is the contemporary thriller The DaVinci Code wanted to be."

-Bill Johnson, author of A Story is a Promise and The Spirit of Storytelling
