It is 1982 in the Vatican as priestly vultures gather around the dying Pope, whispering the names of possible successors. In a forgotten monastery on Ireland's coast, a dangerous document is hidden, waiting to be claimed. And in a family chapel in Princeton, a nun is murdered during her prayers. Sister Valentine was an outspoken activist and when her brother, lawyer Ben Driskill, realizes the Church will never investigate her death, he sets out to find the murderer himself- and uncovers an explosive secret. The assassini, an age-old brotherhood of killers, once were hired by princes of the Church to protect it in dangerous times. But whose orders do they follow now?
