Papal Wrongs (Paperback)

Paperback. A body at 35,000 feet. A letter seven centuries old. And two Irish nuns who are already in Rome before anyone realises they survived. When Sister Claire Voss, archivist and reluctant detective, discovers a medieval mystic's letter buried in a Dublin convent archive, she has no idea that someone will be dead before the flight to Rome lands - or that the letter in her bag is the reason why. Now she and her aunt, the formidably perceptive Sister Margaret Voss, must navigate a city full of old secrets and older institutions. Their mission: deliver the letter to the one cardinal who has spent thirty years waiting for it, before a treacherous Vatican insider can bury it for thirty more. But Rome has its own plans. A taxi driver who knows more than he should. A retired nun in Trastevere with a fireproof cabinet and twenty-two years of patience. And somewhere inside the Vatican's labyrinthine corridors, a private secretary who has confused protecting the Church with protecting the truth - and who will use every bureaucratic tool at his disposal to stop them. What Claire doesn't yet know is the most important thing of all: she didn't find this letter by accident. The Voss name runs directly back to the woman who wrote it in 1347. And the women of her line have been keeping it safe, generation by generation, for seven hundred years - waiting for the right one to finally bring it home. The Mystic's Letter is a richly atmospheric cozy mystery set across Dublin and Rome, featuring two unforgettable nun detectives whose very different methods - one still, one relentless - make them the most compelling investigative duo in religious mystery fiction.
