Resumen del Editor

Tim Donovan is a Catholic priest with a guilty conscience - though not in the way you’d guess. And Katherine Donne is a Parisian socialite who long ago kicked her self-respect to the curb - for good and for ill. And much closer, we have a group of men whose fortunes, graying temples, and positions in life are distinguished and enviable. But their morals? Anything but. And that’s where Evan Reed comes in. Evan (short for Evangeline) is a highly principled political operative with an imperfect past, tasked with uncovering compromising material on a rotten judge up for nomination to the US Supreme Court before he can be rushed through confirmation.

Evan knows it won't be simple to find damaging information against the judge because he's been vetted many times before. When Evan pulls the string after an interview with a cryptic madman, she finds herself struggling to solve a puzzle that gets more complex by the hour. And where crime, money, conscience, and greed come together, danger is sure to lurk. In this sequel to Dust, Ann McMan takes the listener on an intense journey into a world that lies just beneath the thin veneer of civilization - a world teeming with power struggles and warped desires, and a subculture of promises made, kept, and broken.

As Evan pushes further into peril, her personal life sparks into flame with the increasing presence of the ravishing Julia Donne, a book publisher with a progressive bent and troubling questions about her late father. McMan’s specialty of intertwining a hot romance into heart-pounding suspense just keeps getting better and better.

I have enjoyed all of her books

This author narrator tell a really good story. As a rural Appalachian person, her stories feel familiar. There is plenty of action but kindness is always a theme.
I listen to each book more than once over the years.

I’ve been waiting for this sequel!!!

Dust is my favorite Ann McMan book and I’ve been eagerly awaiting the sequel. It did not disappoint! Great story, with great characters, and the narrator is perfect. I highly recommend it! Now I’m waiting for Maya’s story.

I love this book!

I love everything about this story! Both of the Evan and Julia’s stories. I love the mystery I love how they talk to each other! It reminds me of how my wife and I talk to and tease each other. And Christine Williams does an amazing job of bringing everyone to life! I think we need more Evan and Julia!

Excellent

Loved this! Hoping for another in the series!
The intrigue and mystery had me interested the whole time.

Wow!

Included difficult subject of child abuse, but it was a good story. Loved the characters and the development of Evan's relationships. There's also some good humorous sections.

Great story

As usual fantastic writing from one of best. Very current subject and thanks for bringing it up

Exquisitely crafted, complex story of love triumphing over pain

Ann McMan paints vivid pictures with her words and her characters are intriguing, their dialog memorable and often witty. Galileo may be her finest novel to date. It wraps a tender, mature love story around the exposure of a hideous scandal of child sexual abuse hidden by the Catholic Church for decades. Some of the details are extremely painful to read, but none gratuitous. The clever plot turns, strong supporting characters, and ultimately justice for many villains keep the reader riveted. A great novel artfully narrated. Worth ten stars.

excellent book and excellent narration

Intriguing story. Controversial subjects handled well. I love the characters and that Ann McMan maked them face real life issues, and have to make tough choices.

Superb story and narration

Ann McMan is an amazing storyteller. this sequel to Dust was engaging with characters who came to life through McMan's brilliant characters development.

Excellent!

I loved Galileo. So nice to spend time with Evan and Julia in Chadds Ford, PA. and everywhere else their adventures take them. The topics covered in the book and uncovered by Evan are so relevant. Loved the suspense and the romance. I'm ready for book three. Christine Williams does an excellent job with the narration.
