Curse of the Coins

4.3/5 ( ratings)

Adventures with Sister Philomena, Special Agent to the Pope are written and illustrated for ages 8 and older. Sister Philomena lives in a convent in Grottaferrata, Italy, which is near Rome. Few people know that she is a special investigative agent for the Pope. When her young niece and nephew are left with her for the summer, Sister Philomena has no choice but to take the children with her on the Papal assignments. Through these adventures, children learn about the Church, saints, holy places, sacred art, pick up a few Italian words and phrases, and help solve mysteries. Book Three of the beloved series! The 30 pieces of silver that Judas was paid for betraying Jesus were found in Israel. The Franciscan monks of Jerusalem sent the coins to the Vatican Museums for authentication and safekeeping - but then they disappeared! The Holy Father naturally must call upon his special agent, Sister Philomena, to find them. The search for the coins leads Sister Philomena, Riley, and Delaney on a harrowing ride through Rome with that crazy Sister Lisa Renee at the wheel. In the hunt for the coins, the reader gets to visit some of the great Basilicas of Rome and discover the many relics of the Passion of Jesus that are preserved in the basilicas.
