Firmly located in Dan Brown territory, this religious-themed thriller combines historical mystery with modern-day intrigue.One thing is crystal clear: [Dews and Rozan have] produced a first-rate thriller.Booklist

[An] audacious supernatural religious thriller.Publishers Weekly

I literally could NOT put this book down once I started it! It is more of a roller-coaster read than a Dan Brown novel, with more twists and historical references to keep any history buff running a Google search screen in the background as they are reading it!... This book is just so DIFFERENT it offers intellect and scientific reasoning combined with myth and produces a book in the vein of a Dan Brown book, but enhanced as it were, to a different level, where childish fantasies do not apply, and where the search for the great unknown exists.Bless Their Hearts Mom

A heady blend of Christian mythology and ecclesiastical reality, Blood of the Lamb is an intricate puzzle of a novelintensely researched, deeply spiritual, and profoundly sacrilegious. I loved it.F. Paul Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of the Repairman Jack series

A beautiful contribution to the mystery, paranormal, and thriller genres. Its an imaginative and historical take on an age-old topic.Bravo, bravo.Bitches with Books
