Best-selling author James Becker first introduced Det. Sgt. Chris Bronson and antiques expert Angela Lewis in his explosive hit The First Apostle, which was hailed as a "jaw-dropping thriller" (Publishers Weekly). Here Bronson and Lewis return to uncover a centuries-old mystery. Touring a graveyard while on holiday in Venice, the two discover a desecrated tomb with a mutilated female skeleton inside. But why was the woman put to rest in such a state? And what secrets were buried with her?

      When Chris Bronson and his ex-wife, Angela, take a week's holiday in Venice, they expect canals, plazas, and Italian history--not murders, serial killers, and vampires! While the vampire element seemed farfetched to Chris, it isn't out of the realm of believability to have a vampire cult. When Angela is snatched, what is a crime for the Italian police becomes Chris's raison d'etre. Graeme Malcolm's cultivated European accent makes this audio more appealing than the graphic violence otherwise would have rendered it. Although not romanticizing the vampires or villains, Malcolm lends a cultured air to the ritual and history, no matter how brutal. He also segues easily between the Italians and Chris's and Angela's British accents, which makes it easy to keep the characters straight. VERDICT The story requires a serious suspension of disbelief, but Malcolm's narration smooths the way. Not for the faint of heart.--Jodi L. Israel, MLS, Birmingham, AL
