Johns Book
by Simon Taylor
Category: Fiction

Johns Book describes the life of Father John Levy, a tormented man with a shocking confession. After turning himself into authorities for the murder of a fellow priest and long-time friend, Father Matthew Spencer, Levy triggers the spread of doubt and confusion from Greenwich to Rome. Told in two parts, the story is relayed through the eyes of Dr. Abe Martin, a self-deprecating psychologist charged with evaluating Father John before trial. The doctors perspective is challenged, however, when he unexpectedly receives an assortment of journal entries taken from the priests own diary. A thought-provoking and unique blend of literary prose and thrilling suspense, Johns Book will take readers captive with its vivid portrayal of two very different people, each struggling to overcome their inner demons, while fighting desperately to preserve the one identity that threatens to destroy them both.
