false 166670 5 Catherine LeVendeur is a young scholar come to conquer her sin of pride at the Convent of the Paraclete, famous for learning, prayer, and its abbess, the fabled Heloise. When a manuscript the convent produced for the great Abbe Suger disappears, rumors surface saying the book contains sacrilegious passages and will be used to condemn Heloise's famous lover, Peter Abelard.To save her Order, and protect all she holds dear, Catherine must find the manuscript and discover who altered the text. She will risk disgrace, the wrath of her family and the Church, and confront an evil older than Time itself--and, if she isn't careful, lose her immortal soul.With Death Comes As Epiphany, the first in the Catherine LeVendeur mystery series, medievalist Sharan Newman has woven dark mystery and sparkling romance into a fascinating and richly detailed tapestry of everyday life in twelfth-century France, and one of the most moving love stories of all time: Abelard and Heloise. 160946 book 1993 Death Comes As Epiphany: A Catherine LeVendeur Mystery total:127|5:34|4:60|3:29|2:3|1:1| 127 504 199 26 4 1 false false Thu Aug 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 24 08:55:04 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 12:29:59 -0700 2009 Goodreads.com shows that I may be the only person of male gender to have read this book.
