The French law firm of Troute, Flangette et Bronsaurd inform American archeology student Maddy Whitaker that her grandmere died, leaving her with an estate in France. Maddy is stunned; as she was unaware of this grandmere who gave birth to her mom, Beatrice, but sent the child to the Sanders of Savannah, American relatives, to raise the child as their own.

Maddy travels to her late grandmere’s house in France. In the attic she finds an old trunk containing an old leather-bound book that crumbled from her touch. She reads about her de Brissac maternal ancestry, who apparently revered Mary Magdalene. Further exploration finds ancient relics, hidden passageways, and the knowledge that the house lies on top of sacred ground; as a convent was once there. With help from her American friends and her new French amies, Maddy investigates her family tree back two millennia and begins to unravel a secret society plot to rule the world.

With a nod to the Da Vinci Code, The Magdalene Chronicles is a terrific look at the infancy of Christianity through Mary Magdalene’s perspective, interwoven inside a modern-day amateur sleuth conspiracy thriller. Everything ties nicely together; as the ancient diaries, written allegedly by Mary Magdalene, are included inside the contemporary storyline. Readers will obtain their money’s Wuerth with this fine tale that sets up the next entry in "The Followers of the Magdalene" saga.
