Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A Dead Priest. A Hidden Truth. A Conspiracy That Will Shake the World.

Investigative journalist Amara Burke knows her best friend Father Paul Naul's death wasn’t an accident. Armed with a cryptic cassette tape and whispers of a dangerous group known only as The Circle, Amara is thrust into a world of hidden power, secret societies, and deadly conspiracies that reach deep into the corridors of the Church—and beyond.

As she follows the trail of her late friend’s warnings, Amara uncovers a shadow network manipulating politics, religion, and society itself. With her teenage daughter Grace by her side, Amara must unravel the secrets of Project Magdalene, a mysterious operation buried under layers of deception. But every answer comes with a price, and every ally could be a threat.

The deeper Amara digs, the more dangerous the game becomes. Facing assassins, cover-ups, and a hidden war for ultimate control, she must outsmart The Circle before their secrets consume her—and the world as she knows it.

Reviews from Beta Readers:

Sarah Chen, Portland, OR ★★★★★ "The Sacred Circle absolutely floored me. As someone who grew up in a religious institution, the way Roman Heath captures the subtle psychological dynamics of institutional power is chillingly accurate. The relationship between Amara and Grace feels incredibly authentic - it's rare to see a mother-daughter duo written with such complexity and mutual respect. I found myself holding my breath during the archive scenes."

Diane Foster, Minneapolis, MN ★★★★★ "I devoured this in two sittings! The way Heath weaves together past and present, digital and analog, faith and doubt is remarkable. The relationship between Amara and Grace is the heart of the story, but every character feels fully realized. Even the antagonists have understandable motivations. A sophisticated thriller that respects its readers' intelligence."

Robert Kim, Vancouver, BC ★★★★ "The Sacred Circle manages to be both a gripping thriller and a thoughtful examination of how power perpetuates itself. Some of the institutional politics gets a bit dense in places, but the strong character work and mounting tension kept me engaged throughout. The final chapters are absolutely riveting."

Lauren Thompson, Durham, NC ★★★★★ "This book hit me hard. As someone who's reported on institutional corruption, the authenticity of Amara's investigation resonated deeply. Heath captures both the exhausting nature of fighting systemic abuse and the fierce hope that drives people to keep fighting anyway. The mother-daughter dynamic adds an emotional depth that sets this apart from other thrillers. I'm still thinking about it."
