A Time Travelers Delight
Keepers of Secrets is now available on Amazon in eBook. Soon to be released as a paperback and audiobook. Its a Time Travelers Delight & a feast for those who are intrigued by secret societies and organizations. Its been said its impossible to put down until the last page is turned.
When American Detective Rusty Miller accidentally collides with a fleeing priest while on assignment for Homeland Security in Rome, he has no idea that the seemingly chance accident will catapult him into the underground world of the Vatican. The priest’s dying words are a plea, a bug in his ear, the spark that ignites a fire within him to discover just what is going on behind the walls of the Church that has, for so long, closed itself off to the world outside.
Driven by a desire to uncover what the dying priest was talking about, Rusty soon finds himself coupled with an unlikely pair, a young but brilliant medical student by the name of Lorenzo and his devout sister, Anita, a beautiful woman who catches Rusty’s eye even behind the confines of her habit.
A curious handful of denarii, a dead relative, a vault full of relics, and an archive full of hidden knowledge will lead the three deeper into mystery and history than they ever expected, but will they be able to stop a malicious force in time? Will the keepers of secrets silence them for good? Can they trust the wonders of ancient science, the mind-blowing miracles witnessed in the underbelly of Vatican City? Will they survive to tell the tell? What will they learn from the keepers of secrets, and will they discover that they, themselves, have an integral role to play, or will they merely become casualties of the long-fought war against revelation?

Well its been several months since this project was started and we are near the finish line. Keepers of Secrets was produced by talented Brad Langer for Audible.com. It turned out amazing & keeps you on the edge of your chair. It was my intention to write something totally unique that would attract almost everyone's interest. As a science fiction fan as a kid I hit all the thrilling movies & books. I enjoyed historical plots, biblical stories, mysteries and especially time travel events. Why not have a novel with something thrilling for everyone I thought. Keepers of Secrets is a result of fantastic but secretive facts pertaining to some of this centuries creative minds. My research exposes some very interesting tidbits of technology that's kept under wraps from the general public. I weaved a series of twist and turns until the very end with an unexpected surprise. Several professional proof readers explained they never figured out or saw the dramatic surprise ending coming. The audiobook is a keeper.
