VESUVIUS
Vesuvius blends a present-day mystery with the tragedy of young Roman lovers caught in the first century
eruption that buried Herculaneum and Pompeii in A.D. 79.
Oliver, a retired history professor and his granddaughter Cassandra bring a golden box with them on a
vacation to Italy. The box, given to Oliver long ago by his grandfather, contains ancient scrolls from the first
century—letters from a Roman woman and her father. Together with their scientist friends, Oliver and
Cassandra find the skeletal remains of two Romans and a historic villa near Herculaneum that enables them to
discover the meaning of the scrolls. However, the thief Mee Lee seems to always be a step ahead of Oliver
and Cassandra in putting together the puzzle that ultimately leads to the most prized discovery, the sword of
St. Peter. Used by Peter in the Garden of Gethsemane to protect Jesus, this sword could become one of the
Vatican’s most coveted possessions.
Vesuvius brings the reader into the Roman history of ancient gladiators, chariot races, the rich, the poor,
and the cruelty of the times. Still, there are parallels between then and now. In death, Cassandra unites the
two young Romans who were buried on the beaches of Herculaneum—an attachment that was taken from
them, in life. Her connection with the Roman lovers is strengthened by her own bond with Sandro, an Italian
scientist.
