Sign of the Cross - Chris Kuzneski (2006)If you liked the Da Vinci Code, this is really straight up the same old alley. Murders start occuring across the globe in the style of the crucifiction, at the same time as the smart professor and his girl sidekick discover an important secret, buried in catacombs in a small town in Italy.
Throw in a couple of ex CIA agents, and a smart detective and you have a modern murder/thriller mystery. Nicely written, and with a good grasp of history, this rollicking ride is a good beach side read although I found it a bit overly long, I was pleased to read that the author had already cut an additonal 500 pages from his original draft. 2/5
