The Rising | Michael Penosky | The Patrician Prophecy Book One

$12.99

In the not-too-distant post-pandemic future, Ireland embraces a new High King, born of the blood of the old kings, and some say, the blood of the Goddess herself.

All Ian Shaw ever wanted involved two things: make partner at his law firm and surf California’s most dangerous waves. But when his grandfather discovers a mysterious chalice dug from the Irish bogland of their ancestral home, powerful forces threaten murder to stifle the prophecy it pledges. Ian’s life changes forever when he travels to Ireland, to his grandfather’s side, and to a promise he can’t possibly keep.

Saorla O’Rourke, brilliant, beautiful, and borderline suicidal, serves as an Irish History professor at Trinity College, Dublin. She mourns the death of her beloved husband and has lost sight of everything she holds dear. When Ian enlists her to solve the mystery held by the chalice, she fights for the life she once wanted to end, for the faith she thought she had lost forever, and for the love she can’t possibly have.

Lorcan Duihbur, powerful, shrewd, elusive, deadly, holds office as Ireland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs. The rise in the return to paganism has fed both his side job as a black-market-antiquity dealer and his desire for human sacrifice. Loyal to the Goddess, he will stop at nothing to negate the power of the prophecy.

The prophecy of Saint Patrick has the power to transform a nation in a day. But will it be brought to light before the darkness swallows it forever?
