WR.PARK Releases His Shocking and Timely Novel, The Franciscan

October 27, 2014 (KANSAS CITY, MO) – The most internationally anticipated religious suspense-thriller since Dan Brown’s Angels & Demons and The Da Vinci Code, WR.PARK’s The Franciscan is now available for sale on Amazon and CreateSpace. Written 14 years ago, The Franciscan eerily forebodes current events in the Vatican with the current Pope Francis and proves to be a timely novel more than a decade after it was penned. 

New York Times bestselling author James Rollins commented on WR.PARK’s thirteen novel body of work: “I’ve been a fan of WR.PARK’s work for years.”

Synopsis:

“The pope is not infallible.” When the newly elected Pope Francis utters this bold and unprecedented statement, he captures the attention of the world’s population.  His reforms leave no corner untouched as he strips away the mask so long held before the face of the papacy.  Bringing with him an open-minded candor rarely seen by public figures—he’s an inspiration to his followers—and a threat to those who oppose him.

The Franciscan begins with a tale of Vatican suspense and intrigue plaguing the new pope, orchestrated by a powerful evil and corrupt cardinal—plus sweeping reforms—place his life in grave danger.

 “The Franciscan featuring the first Pope Francis is about murder, suicide, extortion, assassins, devilish plots with a narrative with more twists and turns than a ride through purgatory.”–Publisher’s Auxiliary

“The more I investigated/researched my Catholic heritage/faith—the more enthusiastic I became about writing and completing The Franciscan.  I truly believe there’s a profound message lurking between the pages of this book,” admitted author WR.PARK.
