MANCHESTER, England, March 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --Sam Jane Brown's debut novel "Forgotten Word" (http://www.samjanebrown.com) has had fans and critics buzzing about her willingness to explore Roman Catholic Church taboos. Now, for a limited time, readers of mystery and speculative fiction can download the novel for free at Amazon. The promotion will last for five days, March 26-30.
As experts ponder the fate of the Roman Catholic Church under a new pope, Brown's fiction presents a church beset by troubles that eventually affect the entire world. Some troubles, such as child abuse, are all too familiar, but those issues are intertwined with the influence of malevolent otherworldly forces that are overwhelming practitioners of the secretive and dangerous practice of exorcism.
"Forgotten Word" centers on Zena McGrath, a detective for an International Police Organization who is charged with investigating the death of an Irish priest based at the Vatican. The priest is the latest Catholic priest to die in a series of mysterious circumstances.
Vatican authorities claim this death, like the others, is due to natural causes, but Cardinal Donatello, an enigmatic man who trains priests in the art of exorcism, reveals to Zena that the priests who have died were all exorcists. Donatello reluctantly divulges the gravity of the problems that the Vatican faces in the eternal battle between good and evil. He takes Zena to see a priest who is possessed by evil spirits, and she has her own disturbing encounter with a demonic spirit.
At first, Donatello is able to convince Zena to allow the church authorities to fight the evil in their own way, but another Catholic priest is discovered brutally murdered in New York. Zena flies to the city, a dark entity pursuing her. During the course of her investigation, she is persuaded to take part in a dark rite that enables her to see into the past and identify the murderer. The revelation leads her back to Rome and the culprit.
As the trial of the murderer progresses, the shocking truth of the Catholic Church's battle against evil and the extent of satanic worship is revealed to a stunned world. The ensuing verdict incites an international media firestorm and a worldwide movement to banish all forms of religion.
Zena returns to Ireland to find peace and tries to rid herself of the evil spirits haunting her. Her quest takes her to the Holy Land, which becomes the site of the story's powerful finale.
"Forgotten Word" was inspired by Brown's yearlong in-depth Bible study. "I incorporate a fair bit of Western religious precepts, but some readers may find some of the novel's theories and taboo-breaking controversial," she acknowledges. "Exploring different aspects of the Bible and Christianity is generally considered taboo in the church but in the end my story is true to Christianity, and religion in general, as Zena is forced to confront anti-religious forces."
One reader at Amazon.co.uk who reviewed the novel wrote, "I had difficulty putting the book down as I wanted to know what was going to happen. Yes it was a good read." A reviewer at Amazon wrote, " there were a lot of things in it that made me think. It's a timely book given the world we live in I really liked the main character Zena. I could see more books with her in them and even a movie series based on her investigations. All-in-all a good quick read."
When the five-day free promotional giveaway ends on March 30, the novel will be available for $2.99. Brown intends to write more novels that focus on Zena McGrath's exploits and mystery-solving talents. She is currently working on her second book.

MEXICO CITY Wait and see. That's the position of the U.S. Soccer Federation after FIFA on Monday confirmed receipt of Costa Rica's protest of Friday's World Cup qualifier played in heavy snow at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
Costa Rica is seeking a replay of the match based on alleged violations of competitive regulations and disciplinary sanctions against the Salvadoran match officials.
"The U.S. Soccer Federation has been informed by FIFA that there has been correspondence between the Costa Rican federation and FIFA regarding the World Cup qualifier on March 22," U.S. Soccer spokesman Michael Kammarman said at Monday's press conference ahead of Tuesday night's World Cup qualifier against Mexico. "And we're awaiting a response from FIFA."
READ: Why the US should play with five defenders on Tuesday
According to the Costa Rican federation's official site, the federation's legal department worked around the clock on Saturday to submit the protest in the 24-hour window that FIFA rules establish.
The site also details the four chief arguments made in the protest: 1) the danger posed to the players by allowing the match to be played; 2) persons entering the field while the ball was in play; 3) the disappearance of the lines on the field due to the snow accumulation; and 4) the impact of the snow on the movement of the ball on the field.
"FIFA will now analyze the content of the letter and next steps will be determined in due course," said the world's governing body in a statement on Monday.
Costa Rican fans have rallied behind the formal protest and are organizing a protest of their own, encouraging fans in attendance at Tuesday night's sold-out home qualifier against Jamaica to turn their backs to the field during the FIFA pregame anthem.
It remains to be seen how far the Costa Rican protest goes. FIFA is still working on determining whether the Central Americans followed procedure in filing it, according to the 2014 World Cup regulations. One detail in those regulations calls for the team captain of the protesting team to "immediately lodge a protest with the referee in the presence of the captain of the opposing team."
But Clint Dempsey, who captained the US on Friday, denies that meeting ever took place.
