#CrossofCiaran #TimeTravel #Paranormal When a fifth-century pagan priest is unearthed in Ireland fifteen hundred years after being entombed, archaeologist Caitlin O’Connell is convinced it’s the find of the century. The body is in perfect condition, right down to the intricate tattoos adorning the Celt’s skin. In fact, if scientific data hadn’t proved otherwise, she would swear he hadn’t been interred more than a few hours. Eager to discover more about the mysterious Celt, Caitlin accompanies the body back to the New York museum where she’s employed, but before she has time to study him, the priest disappears without a trace. Rumours surrounding the event begin to circulate and result in the excavation’s benefactor pulling the plug on the entire expedition. The rumours are not far off the mark though. After being buried alive for betraying his goddess and his priesthood in the dawning age of Christianity, Ciarán wakes to a strange new world. Alone and frightened in an unforgiving city, he stumbles upon the only thing familiar to him and seeks sanctuary within the church walls. With the help of the parish’s pastor, Father Mike, Ciarán slowly grows accustomed to his surroundings, though he’s plagued by dark dreams and the disturbing sensation that an evil from his past has followed him into the future. But a more immediate danger lurks on his doorstep... My Review: I really enjoyed The Cross of Ciaran by Andrea Matthews. The story line was solid, the book progressed well with the different timelines playing well off each other. I found the characters likable, believable and I enjoyed the interactions between them. You get to see many facets of the characters with some secrets that are revealed that are intuitive, but also some that are surprising to the reader as well as the characters. The method of time travel was unexpected and I was very curious how it would be handled from the very beginning. I was drawn into the story and the pages flew by. By the end of the book, I was wanting more and wished that there was more to read, so looking forward to the next in the series. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMdBwWclLNb/?igshid=1vjxvtar0hdlh
