Why read it?

1 author picked Mosaic as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I’ve been a fan of Catherine McCarthy’s work for a few years now, but this was a high for me.

The voice of the main character seems almost instantly familiar. The mystery elements which unfold as you learn more about the strange goings on at the church, and the way the ending of the story is crafted are masterful.
