About the Book:
Luci de Foix was nine when her parents were killed in a car accident. But was it an accident? Unbeknownst to Luci, a group known as The Order, under the protection of the Pope, has been watching her family for many years, waiting for the day that a diary written in the thirteenth century would be delivered to her family—a journal that contains a key to a lost codex—and they would do anything to get it. Early one morning, when Luci is twenty-nine, a bloodied young man delivers a book, claiming it’s from her late grandparents.
Plagued by panic attacks that have left her crippled, Luci struggles to overcome her fears, avenge the death of their family, and search for the lost codex. But who can she trust? Everyone seems intent on betraying her, even the gorgeous, enigmatic Max, a man with secrets of his own.

Book Review by Crystal J. Casavant-Otto
How Many Stars?
4.5
The Review:
I enjoyed the mystery and intrigue throughout The Black Madonna; it was a nice mix of fantasy and thriller with just enough facts and history to play tricks on the mind. Readers who enjoy historical fiction, fantasy, thrillers, or sci-fi will delight in this dark tale and it's young (yet most times mature) heroine. My favorite part was the relationships throughout the book - there were so many times when I found myself wondering "can she really trust so and so?" and I was impressed with Luci's tenacity. She never wavered in her quest to avenge her family's death and she overcame her fears time and time again.
The Decision:
Not a book I would share with my younger children - a little too violent. A quick read I would absolutely recommend to another adult friend.

I have long felt a special connection with herbal medicine. First, it's natural, Charlie attended the same small college in Southern California - Claremont Men's College - although he dropped out of school to enroll in the Julliard School of Performing Arts in New York. York. Had he been to Claremont, he would have been senior the year I started there; I often thought that was the reason he was gone when he discovered that I had herpes. So, my life was lonely, all day, I could not stand the pain of the outbreak, and then Tasha introduced me to Dr. Itua who uses her herbal medicines to cure her two weeks of consumption. I place an order for him and he hands it to my post office, then I pick it up and use it for two weeks. All my wound is completely healed no more epidemic. I tell you honestly that this man is a great man, I trust him Herbal medicine so much that I share this to show my gratitude and also to let sick people know that there is hope with Dr. Itua.
