What were your thoughts on the opening section of the book?

I thought they were moving someone's body from Rome and taking it to Germany. It reminded me of the first book by Steve Berry, The Knights Templar, at the time when the real pope was moved to France.

I thought it was interesting but it did feel familiar.

It was interesting but definitely not gripping. that happened in the Gray vs Dragon Lady episode

It was interesting but seemed to do a lot of jumping around. Of course I was a late coming to it. if it hadn't been for Lynda I wouldn't have even had the book. Our Lynda is a "techno nerd" of the highest order:) Seriously...thank you Lynda.

Well done Lynda! ๐Ÿ‘

It is a typical opening for these type of books where they are setting the scene, introducing the theme and the main characters. Looks as though this could be a very interesting story and I like the historical aspect.

>8 Andrew-theQM: And our Lynda has performed at least one miracle. She got it to send the very first time and didn't need Oliver's help.
