Synopsis

Some white collar jobs are more difficult than others - especially when you have all Hell pitched against you.

After the night of the horrific accident, everyone's lives have been turned upside down.  With his brother in a coma and his inexperienced little sister asked to take her place at Reinold International Shipping Enterprises, Monsignor Peter Reinold is granted rare permission from the archbishop to do the unorthodox and temporarily return to his former executive life in the world to help the family through this tragic time. For charity's sake he agrees to keep things running until she finds her feet, ever wary of the dangerous surroundings he is about to enter, for an old flame is only waiting for such an opportunity and will do everything to snare him back.

Faced with smouldering temptations, Peter soon finds another battle lies in store when an unusual case is brought before him that requires his rare spiritual expertise. A gravely ill young woman is in dire need of assistance. Doctors are at a loss, nursing staff are terrified. Her legal guardians turn to him as their last hope, it is now up to him. Armed only with his faith, prayer and his exorcism weapons, Peter dares to defy an ancient enemy only to discover an inferno prepared to destroy him.

Will he and those around him survive the ordeal?  Find out in Vocation of a Gadfly, Book Two of the Gadfly Saga.

About the Author

Born in Carson City, Nevada, E.A. Bucchianeri spent her early years in nearby Virginia City, the legendary mining town made famous by Mark Twain, the Comstock Lode, and the American West. Surrounded by history, art, and the enduring stories of the past, she developed an early fascination with literature, creativity, and the ideas that continue to shape cultures across generations.After completing her education at Loreto Academy in Ireland, she studied music at University College Cork before turning her attention to writing. Her interests have long crossed the boundaries between literature, history, art, music, philosophy, and theology-subjects that continue to influence both her fiction and her literary research.Bucchianeri is the author of The Gadfly Saga, including 'Brushstrokes of a Gadfly' and 'Vocation of a Gadfly', as well as several works of literary and historical scholarship, including the two-volume 'Faust: My Soul Be Damned for the World'. Whether writing novels or exploring the lives and works of figures such as Goethe and Handel, and other influential voices from literature and music, she is drawn to stories that examine creativity, authenticity, moral courage, and the search for truth.A lifelong lover of books, she believes the best stories entertain the imagination while inviting readers to think a little more deeply about the world they inhabit.Now living in Fátima, Portugal, Bucchianeri continues to write while finding inspiration in the rich history, art, and spiritual heritage of her adopted home. She hopes her work will encourage readers not only to enjoy a good story, but also to look a little more closely at the ideas, people, and questions that continue to shape our own.
