Death, Politics and The Eternal City
The murder of the Red Priest seemed like the beginning . . .
Rome foreign correspondent, Andy Chapman, investigates the brutal killing of a controversial left-wing priest and discovers evidence which appears to implicate the Vatican in the death. He turns his information over to the investigating magistrate, the beautiful Elena Fiorini, and together they begin a hunt for the killers. Probing deeper, they find themselves up against the might of the Catholic Church and a sinister network of neo-Fascist fanatics. Their quest leads them to the very heart of the Vatican and back to the last days of Mussoloini's dictatorship, when people changed their identities but not their allegiances.
The murder of the Red Priest was not the beginning. It was merely another link in a conspiracy which powerful, unseen forces will go to unimaginable lengths to conceal . . .
