The elder moved through the poorly lit corridor, passing centuries of writings recorded by the Archives. Pausing with one hand on his cane, and the other pressing against the glass wall, he scans the greatest literary project on earth. Surrounding him are the truths behind the lies.

One of those truths can destroy the Vatican. The Christ Parchments prove Christ is a myth. Fearing their release, the church creates the Pious Warriors to kill the elders and burn the documents.

Burke and Lisa are security directors at the Archives. They travel to an abandoned monastery inn France, the streets of Marseille, and to Rome to stop the Warriors. Fighting the distractions of their growing love, and Lisa’s loss of faith, they know failure means the destructions of centuries of recorded truths.

The Elders face the ultimate choice. Risk the destruction of the parchments or release them to the world and create chaos.
