    About this ebook

    Most of us are familiar with Jesus’ parents, Mary and Joseph, and Jesus’ purported spouse, Mary Magdalene. But what about Jesus’ siblings? What role did they play in early Christianity?

    Contemporary Jesuit and renowned religious historian Nicholas Branson is about to find out...and the answer will shake the foundations of the Judeo-Christian world.

    It all starts with the murder of a United States Senator in a confessional, and the discovery of a strange religious document among his possessions. At the urging of his FBI friend, Branson joins the investigation. His effort to uncover the truth behind the murder draws him into the search for an eight-hundred-year-old treasure and into a web of ecclesiastical and political intrigue.

    Accompanied by a beautiful, sharp-tongued research librarian, Jessica Jones, Branson follows a trail of clues, from the peaks of the awe inspiring French Pyrenees to the caves of war-torn Afghanistan. Along the way, shadowy powerful forces trail the pair, determined to keep safe a secret buried for centuries.

      Loved it! Great story interesting characters. Plot moves at a good pace.
    • 5/5
      The Brother's Keeper: A Nicholas Branson Novel by Matthew Peters is an awesome book that keeps you on your toes at all times. There are objects that can change the course of history and religion as we know it and some people will do anything to keep this knowledge from coming to light. Some want it for power, some for money, some ... it is a fast paced, exciting read that has lots of twists and turns that leaves you breathless. Great plot, well developed characters and believable dialogue and situations despite the concept. Wonderful story! I received this book for a honest review and it in no way effected my review or rating, it is just darn good!
