A Texas oilman. A brilliant female archaeologist. An unknown world underneath the Vatican. In 1939, a team of workers beneath the Vatican unearthed an early Christian grave. This surprising discovery launched a secret quest that would last decades -- a quest to discover the long-lost burial place of the Apostle Peter. From earliest times, Christian tradition held that Peter -- a lowly fisherman from Galilee, whom Christ made leader of his Church -- was executed in Rome by Emperor Nero and buried on Vatican Hill. But his tomb had been lost to history. Now, funded anonymously by a wealthy American, a small army of workers embarked on the dig of a lifetime. The incredible, sometimes shocking, story of the 75-year search and its key players has never been fully told -- until now. The quest would pit one of the 20th century's most talented archaeologists -- a woman -- against top Vatican insiders. The Fisherman's Tomb is a story of the triumph of faith and genius against all odds. ABOUT THE AUTHORJohn O'Neill is a lawyer and #1 New York Times bestselling author. He has spent much of his life visiting and researching early Christian sites.

John O'Neill writes about the people and the province of Galicia where he and his wife have lived since moving there in the summer of 2006: humourously, knowledgeably, contentiously, and with no little respect for the people and customs of Spain's largely forgotten region. Full of personal moments and incidents that the reader will relate to.

In a series of anecdotes, which are invariably linked to his thirty-nine years teaching Spanish from 1966 until 2005, John O'Neill tells of journeys traveled and places seen and (more importantly) people met; social experiences both good and not-so-good; friendships both fleeting and life-forming.
