[Sarah · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very detailed, detective-like explanation of the process in which she was involved in the discovery of the bones of St. Peter, as well as her role as epigrapher (language riddle solving) that was one of the pieces of the puzzle, when, all taken together, proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the bones were what they were purported to be. Great story, even if you're not a believer.
