In this his third book on the subject of the Shroud of Turin, Noel Currer-Briggs takes the due note of the result of the 1988 carbon-dating, while relating it to his own genealogical research into the families associated with the Shroud. The result is an extraordinary unraveling of a mystery that has captivated the imagination of scholars and laymen alike for more than 20 years.

Shroud Mafia is truly a fascinating detective story which traces the possible origins and movements of the Shroud of Turin during the Crusades, providing a medieval panorama which deals with events in places as far apart as Somerset, Greece, the Holy Land and Ethiopia, and spanning the 12th to the 14th Centuries.
