Riveting and ribald… John Kennedy gives readers an unsparing and sometimes startling and raw glimpse into the dark side of humanity and the Catholic Church!

When a rare religious relic is stolen from a small Catholic college, a well-known former student digs into the mystery surrounding the artifact and launches himself into a modern-day crusade for truth.

John Joseph Kennedy began his love affair with writing during college, when his very first short story Chad Jarman is 40 Today! earned him an invitation to Harvard University’s prestigious summer writing program. He worked as a journalist for The Daily Law Journal/Journal Record. Since then, his work has been published in numerous publications, including Beverly Hills People, the United Nations Environmental Newsletter, and Florida Guest Magazine. He also worked as a model in more than fifty print and fashion campaigns, and is a popular and highly acclaimed public speaker. John’s family is originally from Charleston, South Carolina, however, he grew up in Oklahoma City. He is a lifelong Catholic who can trace his family’s religious heritage back nearly one thousand years. In addition to his Monstrance Mystery Series, he is busy writing a true crime novel and screenplay, Murder At The Shangri ‘La, based on the heroic life and tragic death of his sister, Cecilia Madeline Kennedy.
