I enjoyed this book a great deal. To me it is a combination of Angels and Demons and the 1970's Chevy Chase movie Foul Play. In any case, it is steeped in the Catholic faith, but is not a "religois" book by any stretch of the meaning, it has true pieces in the book but is purely fiction. A devout member of the Catholic Church may not enjoy this fictional portrayal of impurities in the Catholic Church and it touches on the true issues surrounding sexual abuse in the Catholic church. That being said, if it read for the pleasure of a good thriller and the knowledge that it is fiction it is a good book that keeps you on the edge of your seat and still leaves some questions in your mind when you are done. Now that's a good thriller!
