Robert, I'm reading a book - (on my iPad that I've downloaded free using
Overdrive which I've mentioned before - that you might be interested in.
The writer is Robert Harris who is one of my favourites. He is an exceptional writer (good speller and his grammar is impeccable*) and has written across several genres - WW2, Thriller, History plus non-fiction historical writings.
He wrote
Fatherland, Enigma, Archangel, Pompeii (plus other Roman era novels),
An Officer and A Spy, Ghost, plus other great stuff. I really recommend him.
I'm waiting for his latest release (on
Overdrive) -
Munich about the Munich Agreement but downloaded his second to last novel
The Conclave which I've been reading on the bus from Auckland to Whangarei. It's a novel about the death (maybe suspicious) of a pope and the conclave of cardinals who are to elect the next pope. Lots of really interesting church history here and it is disturbing. Harris is a serious writer not like that tosser Dan Brown who tried to create conspiracy theories about the cCatholic church and the Illuminati.
I hope that you can track this down.
* And he doesn't write poetry.
