Tha (from the back cover) Pope John Paul II is dead, and 115 cardinals are called to Vatican in order to elect the new Pope. With Rome under siege to foreign press and thousands of mourners, the last thing it needs is a serial killer on the loose... Paola Dicinti is a profiler who works with the Italian police - but so far all her experience of serial killers is theoretical. That is until a cardinal is found murdered, his eyes destroyed, his hands cut off. And it seems that this is not the first victim. Paolas investigations are helped by Anthony Fowler, a priest from the States. But Fowler is no ordinary priest - he clearly has links to the CIA, and knows a lot more about the serial killer than Dicanti could ever have guessed... A dark and riveting thriller... hugely satisfying Raymon Khoury, bestselling author of The Last Templar
