The Historian meets The Da Vinci Code in this exhilarating supernatural thriller set in Rome. Rival groups
are searching for a document that holds a secret that could shatter the
Catholic Church.
While in Rome, American Jesuit priest Thomas
Kelly is called upon to reclaim a centuries-old document stolen from the Vatican. An enigmatic letter leads him to the work of a 19th century
poet, where Thomas discovers cryptic messages that might lead to the
missing manuscript. His search is unexpectedly entwined with that of
Italian art historian Livia Pietro, who tells him that destructive
forces are threatening to expose the document’s contents. As they’re
relentlessly chased through the heart of Rome by mysterious men who
quickly demonstrate they would cross any line to obtain the document for themselves, it becomes clear to Livia and Thomas that the pages hold a
deep, devastating, long-buried truth. Livia, though, has a secret of her own: she and her People are vampires. But all this pales in light of
the Secret that Thomas and Livia discover together — a revelation more
stunning than either could have imagined.
