4.0

After the Cross has a little bit of everything for every reader. There is mystery, history, and a little bit of romance. There is suspense, danger, violence, and a journey of self discovery.

There was a bit of shifting POV and I know for some people that can get confusing, but in this book it was beautifully executed and well organized so as not to detract from the story at all.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. I loved the history behind it, which seemed very well researched and easily incorporated into the story.

I am relatively new to the genre of historical fiction, and especially historical Christian fiction that delves into the history behind artifacts important to one's faith. I found that I could easily get lost in the pages and find that the story really did drag you in.

I think for anyone of a Christian background who enjoys the history of things, this is a must read.
