From the reviewers:

Being a fan of suspense and action mystery, this book had it all covered for me. Mr. Harney has a nice simple writing style that makes the story easy to follow. a very unique fashion. Apparently the author has researched this subject area considerably, and it gave me a new insight into this disturbing topic. I’m looking forward to reading the next work from this author. —- Bill Partak

“It’s as if Jack Harney had a crystal ball!”  –  NY Time’s bestselling author Mary Jane Clark (on her Facebook page)

It is hard to believe this is Jack Harney’s first book. I could not put the book down. I was impressed in the amount of research that was done. This was a good mystery novel that I hope to see more of. Being Catholic myself, it was very thought provoking. Great job Jack.  — “blm”

As an author of books that require extensive research (aka Thomas K Matthews) I was impressed with the information provided by Jack Harney in The Millstone Prophecy.   This is a wonderfully written, harshly real and intriguing story filled with the stark truth and shines the light of exposure onto a dark and hidden reality. A great job.  –  Stacy Matthews

I am Bronx born of Irish descent. Despite a family move taking me to Michigan as a teenager, where I spent most of my adult life, NewYork keeps calling me back. Because my ancestors arrived through Ellis Island more than a century ago, I sometimes think I possess a genetic component that craves a very specific high energy environment indigenous only to New York City. On my bucket list is to eventually end up back there…well for summers at least.

So it was no fluke that at the beginning of my writing career my first work would revolve around a famed, Bronx born, Irish N.Y.P.D. detective, Dax McGowan, who is driven to track down and kill the priest that caused his daughter’s suicide.

From the author: The story involves his manhunt that takes him to the walls of Vatican City and beyond with startling results. It’s Dax’s battle with the institution, a politically weakened response from the D.A.’s office, and struggles with his own grief and conscience in the process. There are also two very strong women who Dax must engage in order to reach his prey. One is a lesbian, street smart S.V.U. detective, and the other a lady who heads a worldwide sex abuse victim’s network who carries a secret Dax endeavors to uncover…though this relationship involves some intriguing twists.

What he doesn’t expect is that the quest to destroy his daughter’s killer will only lead to facing his own imminent death. Dax has his quirks, but without them, he’d be less than the revered detective he is.
