The Expected One, by Kathleen McGowan


(Book One of the Magdalene Line)

Readers will quickly be drawn into this historical fiction account of Mary Magdalene's life and her role as Jesus' partner. The vehicle into the past is Maureen Pascal, a modern-day journalist who feels a special affinity for the ancient Mary. This affinity grows into obsession as Maureen begins to experience visions of Mary and finds herself part of an ancient secret and a modern search for Mary Magdalene's gospels.

A mystery that travels around the globe, around the century, and down the art world of Da Vinci, Cocteau, Poussin and others.

This book is sure to resonate with readers who enjoyed the Da Vinci Code.

A sequel to this novel is due out in 2009.
