<p>The eighteenth-century was the heyday of the Protestant ascendancy. McBride, however, acknowledges that the greatest advance in the history of the time has been the recovery of Catholic attitudes during the zenith of the ascendancy. McBride insists on the continuity of Catholic politics and traditions right through the century, so that the nationalist explosion in the 1790s is seen not as a sudden earthquake, but as the maturing of an underground tradition. This holistic survey cuts past the cliches and lazy thinking that has characterized our understanding of the eighteenth century. It sets a template for future understanding of that time.</p>

"I've called the police," screamed Tara Connelly at her stunned husband. "I hope you rot in hell for the rest of your life for what you did to our son." Shane Connelly, a self-made success story, faces a father's greatest nightmare. His troubled son and wife accuse him of being a sexual predator. Then a beautiful mystery woman befriends him, only to disappear when the Twin Towers fall on September 11, 2001. With his life imploding, Connelly needs to summon all of his survival skills to save himself, his newly formed company and his vulnerable eleven-year-old daughter. With the assistance of an unexpected team of allies, he races against the clock to solve a diabolical jigsaw puzzle and to understand why his own flesh and blood would accuse him of such a horrendous crime. In this thriller, the depths of human darkness are probed in an epic battle of good versus evil as a father attempts to overcome the ultimate betrayal.
