The Book of Love

The second in the New York Times bestselling Magdalene Line Trilogy continues as journalist Maureen Pascal searches for the mysterious Book of Love—a lost gospel allegedly written by Jesus.

When Maureen receives a mysterious package containing an ancient Latin manuscript, she is stunned to find it signed in code by Matilda of Tuscany, a powerful woman from the eleventh century. Known also as Matilda of Rome, her legacy has been buried by time—perhaps deliberately. The scroll reveals a demand for the return of sacred texts to the Abbey of Orval, the same mystical site tied to the prophecy of the Expected One. As Maureen begins to piece together the hidden history of Matilda’s life and the elusive Book of Love, she embarks on a journey through time, uncovering a tangle of religious mystery, political suppression, and her own spiritual destiny. With echoes of the religious and historical mysteries of Dan Brown and Daniel Silva, The Book of Love is a compelling thriller of a woman’s pursuit of the truth no matter the cost.
