✦ Synopsis


Father Michael Romano has run afoul of the modern inquisitors before. This time, it leads to a medieval manuscript and murder. Was it an ordinary theft gone wrong or something more? The Carabinieri in Rome would like to know. Michael Romano, an American priest working in the Vatican�s Secret Archives, has a penchant for stepping over the line. Church Inquisitors have noticed—and aren�t happy. They�re stuck with him as his expertise as the Church�s senior paleographer is needed. A ninth-century prayer book known as a Psalter needs Romano�s attention. Father Romano�s examination leads him into the past as he uncovers an historical narrative of medieval forgeries, Saracen invasions and a legendary fight for the richest kingdom on earth. Yet he has unwittingly become a target for those who will stop at nothing to possess the secret of the Psalter.
