Produktbeschreibung
In 1982, Italian financier Roberto Calvi, known as "God's Banker," was discovered hanging under London's Blackfriars Bridge. What wasn't found was the briefcase he was known to have had with him the night before, reportedly stuffed with incriminating documents, a special key, and a computer disk filled with codes, which together unlock a piece of the Vatican's troubled past. When the briefcase mysteriously reappears in the Vatican Secret Archives, Father Michael Dominic and his team-Hana, Marco, Karl, Lukas, the feisty young nun Sister Teri, and Dominic's new assistant, Ian-are up against two powerful and enigmatic organizations, Opus Deus and the ultra-secret, outlawed Masonic Lodge P2, who savagely fight for control of the briefcase and its contents. Their goal? To carry out one of the most dangerous conspiracies the Church has ever faced-all happening during an unexpected conclave to elect a new pope. From Rome, Italy, to Geneva, Switzerland, join Dominic and friends as they fend off plotters, kidnappers, and blackmailers who have threaded their way into Vatican politics for decades, in a conspiracy known as The Opus Dictum.

Autorenporträt
Gary McAvoy is a veteran technology executive, entrepreneur, and lifelong writer. For several years he was also a literary media escort in Seattle, during which time he worked with hundreds of authors promoting their books—most notably Dr. Jane Goodall, with whom Gary later collaborated on "Harvest for Hope: A Guide to Mindful Eating" (Hachette, 2005). Gary is also a professional collector of rare literary manuscripts and historical letters and books, a passion that sparked the intriguing discoveries leading up to his latest book, "And Every Word Is True" (Literati Editions, March 2019), a revealing look at startling new disclosures about the investigation surrounding the 1959 Clutter family murders, heinous crimes chillingly portrayed in Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood." "And Every Word Is True" pulls back the curtain for a suspenseful encore to Capote’s classic tale, adding new perspectives to an iconic American crime.
