Annja Creed loves her job as an archeologist. There's nothing she enjoys more than digging into the past, quite literally, to uncover secrets and solve the mysteries behind many popular myths. Her current job has her in France trying to uncover the truth about the Beast of Gevaudan where she falls into a cave at the top of a mountain and receives the shock of her life.
Annja has found an artifact, a small coin, which becomes her Destiny. Now she's on the run from a brotherhood of monks who have secrets to protect, and a blood thirsty occult follower who wants the coin for himself. Her strongest ally is the mysterious Roux who has his own reasons for helping Annja, believing she is the answer to his own Destiny as well.
Wow! I've been wanting to read the Rogue Angel series forever and never seem to find the time. When I happened across the audio versions of the books quite by accident on Amazon, I just had to buy the first three. I've since ordered the rest of the series that is presently available in audio. I love all the stories of Joan of Arc and I was quite excited to read this new twist on one of the most infamous women in religious history.
We have many mysteries linked together through Destiny and Annja had no idea what she was in for upon her discovery in a French cave. As I was listening, I couldn’t help but wonder how all of these stories were connected yet when the climax is reached everything melds perfectly and I was amazed at how Alex Archer concludes the story.
Annja is a fascinating and complex character. Her history begins to be explored and we find out quite a bit about her. She’s an intriguing blend of innocence, courage, heroism, and a thirst for adventure. She has her moments of weakness and strength with her selflessness usually winning out. I look forward to more of Annja’s Destiny being explored in future novels in the Rogue Angel series.
