Lost Catacomb (Hochberg)

Book Reviews
A marvelous book--thrilling and literary. A compelling depiction of the Vatican, with its profound mysteries and troubling ties to the Holocaust, riveting action, and a tender love story that will appeal to a wide audience.
Aryeh Lev Stollman, author of The Far Euphrates and The Illuminated Soul

 
I was impressed by the extensive on-site research [Hochberg] conducted.... The Lost Catacomb is a thoughtful and erudite yet fast-moving thriller about archaeological and personal discoveries.  At its center is Nicola Page, an American art historian with Italian roots who is brought to Rome to examine the provenance of a newly uncovered catacomb; at the same time, she hopes to uncover long-buried secrets about her family.

[F]ast-moving, fascinating....  Hochberg is...a master storyteller in the way that, from the beginning, she drops little hints of what is to come in the book—such as references to the Nazi era. For anyone interested in historical fiction, the troubled history of Jews in Italy, art history, and above all, the great Eternal City of Rome, The Lost Catacomb is a valuable treasure in itself.
