The Cross of Ciarán (The Cross of Ciarán Book 1) by Andrea Matthews – Review by Anantha Rusum

The Cross of Ciaran by Andrea Matthews
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a very interesting plot which takes us through two different timelines. It is about an archeological dig in Ireland, where an archeologist Caitlin uncovers a perfectly preserved corpse of a 1500 year old Pagan Irish priest, Ciaran, who lived in the fifth century. The body is taken to New York for further testing, But on reaching New York, the priest disappears. He is awakened, and seeks comfort in a church. The story takes an interesting turn when these two-start dating. How long can Ciaran hold back his secrets from Caitlin? Ciaran is an interesting character and the readers can empathize with his situation. Caitlin is slightly loud mouthed and does not come across as truly likeable. But they both form a very interesting pair.
The book is a breezy read , there are few secrets revealed, few left to be understood. The time travel element is interesting. Over all a good book to read.
