Holy Shroud or clever hoax?

  2. I am a big fan of Dr. Bass. I have read all of your fiction and non-fiction collaborations as Jefferson Bass (sans the new release). I particularly enjoyed the non-fiction accounts of Dr. Bass' experiences. I have even met you guys a couple of times at book signings in Knoxville. I have bit of criticism regarding the novels: drop the thinly veiled leftist agenda that pervades your fiction! I am captivated by the science and knowledge that is presented in the novels but disappointed at the obvious political message. As an evil right-wing, apathetic, capitalist, I suppose that I should just stop buying the books. I probably will not do this. I just wanted to take a moment to complain about what I feel is the biggest fault in an otherwise interesting series of novels.
