Art conservator Jana Hayes, practical and sceptical after a relationship breakdown,tends to avoid intimacy and buries herself in work. Living in Venice and enjoying it, she has no idea – even when she is mugged, even when curator Rob Anderson, who happens to be a priest, shakes her tranquil humdrum days – that murder and a chase through Europe are about to confound her life.
Or that an old wooden panel and a New Testament evangelist would turn her life around and change everything: even how she regards the relationship with her own mother.
According to Luke is a thrilling romantic novel of secrecy, symbols, faith, and forbidden love. It takes the reader on a quest for an ancient truth so powerful it disturbs the Catholic Church: a truth so explosive it attracts violent separatists and demands a ransom of millions. Follow a chase that charges from Venice to Malta, and then to Ravenna: a chase that escalates to disaster in Damascus, until a solution is found in the Victorian countryside in Australia.
