Book 1: THE LAZARUS SUCCESSION

A LEGEND TO SLAUGHTER FOR

A TRUTH TO DIE FOR...

★★★★★ "The Lazarus Succession delivers the religious conspiracy and intricate mystery facets of Dan Brown, with a careful weaving of Biblical events with conspiratorial agents, both modern and ancient, in a clue-filled supernatural mystery thriller."

★★★★★ "...with his excellent grasp of the written word he leads us to accept the surreal as perfectly normal and possible." ~ Readers' Favorite

According to legend, Annas Zevi, an artist who witnessed the raising of Lazarus, was told by Christ to paint what he saw. Since then, a sacred line of artists had been chosen in an unbroken succession. Each one painting a depiction of the miracle. Each work vanishing until the next successor is appointed. They were rumoured to be sacred icons with miraculous powers.

International Art Recovery Experts, Broderick Ladro and Ulla Stuart, are hired by a disgraced High Court judge, Sir Maxwell Throgmorton, to locate a long lost medieval painting by Spanish artist Francisco Cortez. Like Zevi, his work is said to be divinely inspired.

Throgmorton's client, a wealthy Spanish Condesa, is terminally ill and the icon is her last hope. She will pay and do whatever it takes to find the missing work of Cortez.

Unbeknown to the Condesa, Throgmorton seeks to make a vast personal fortune from the discovery of the paintings, and use it to reclaim his place in society.

Brodie and Ulla learns of Throgmorton's deceit and attempts to thwart his plans. As they delve deeper into the mystery of the missing Cortez painting, they discover a secret that changes their lives forever.

Just as it changed the lives of everyone it touched across the centuries.

Book 2: THE LAZARUS CONTINUUM

AN AGE-OLD SECRET MUST BE KEPT SAFE

UNTIL A SUCCESSOR IS CHOSEN

★★★★★ "Too many thrillers are the same at the moment. This book is just a little bit different as it adds Christian mysticism to a thrilling story - and gets away with it. Art is the background, history is the driver and the characters are strong and believable."

It's been seventeen years since Brother Baez, formerly Broderick Ladro, entered the monastery to fulfill his legacy, turning his back on all earthly affairs. His strange visions and doubts have steadily increased through the years and he goes on a desert retreat to make sense of it all.

Brodie's painting, The Raising of Lazarus , is endowed with the power to heal. A secret that must be guarded, as it has been since the first was painted thousands of years ago by Annas Zevi who witnessed the miraculous event.

Brodie senses that a new artist is being summoned. But who?

The players are being brought together once again to protect an ancient, unbroken legacy.

Unless Brodie, his daughter, Martha, and their close friends succeed in keeping the Lazarus legacy alive and the succession unbroken, a powerful secret will fall on evil hands.
