“The Hong Kong Connection” is a legal thriller about a gutsy female attorney who takes on high ranking International officials. It’s a taut, rollercoaster of a ride from New York to Palm Beach to Washington D.C. to Hong Kong. The plot is expertly woven, the characters persuasive, and the dialogue snappy and spot on.

Comment on The Secret Supper Far Surpasses the Da Vinci Code by assemblyofgoodchristians

It should be clearly noted this is a work of complete and absolute fiction. There was no relationship between the medieval Cathars and Leonardo da Vinci,the Shroud of Turin, Freemasons, Knights Templar, secret sect of Mary Magdalene or a hidden bloodline of Jesus Christ.

The term “Cathars” derives from the Greek word Katheroi and means “Pure Ones”. They were a gnostic Christian sect that arose in the 11th century, an offshoot of a small surviving European gnostic community that emigrated to the Albigensian region in the south of France.The medieval Cathar movement flourished in the 12th century A.D. throughout Europe until its virtual extermination at the hands of the Inquisition in 1245. They were simple living, plain spoken, spiritually guided Christians

There are an ever increasing number of historians and other academics engaged in serious Cathar studies. Interestingly, to date, the deeper they have dug, the more they have vindicated Cathar claims to represent a survival of the Earliest Christian Church.

Thank you!
