Clonmac's Bridge - Jeffrey Perren - Bog

A maritime archaeologist raises a medieval monastery span from the mud of the River Shannon, sunken for 1,200 years... and finds it perfectly preserved. What could account for this shocking longevity? Why are his colleagues, the Irish government, and the Church so desperate to prevent him learning the secret? Why is his consummate lover his greatest enemy? Griffin Clonmac will go through hell to find out. Clonmac's Bridge shifts between contemporary times and 9th century Ireland. It tells the story of two men who struggle against envy and mediocrity - a millennium apart - aided only by a loyal helpmate and an unconquerable will.
