Contract with God
After fifty years in hiding, the war criminal known as the Butcher of Spiegelgrund has been tracked to a town outside Vienna. Father Anthony Fowler, CIA operative and member of the Vatican's secret service, the Holy Alliance, has been sent to deal with him. But first he wants something - a candle covered in fine filigree gold, stolen from a Jewish family. Fowler knows that, hidden within the candle, he'll find the missing fragment of an ancient map. Soon he is involved in an expedition to Jordan, set up by a reclusive billionaire with connections to the highest levels of the Catholic Church. But there's a traitor in the group, linked to terrorist organisations back in the US, who patiently awaits the moment to strike.
