The Hunter Files, 6.

Murder and abduction in the Vatican set the scene for another riveting thriller from Rob Jones, The Vatican Conspiracy, as Max Hunter, now on a temporary assignment to the Vatican unwilling becomes involved in a conspiracy that will push him to his very limits.

Old friend and mentor Professor Marco Vitali is murdered in the hallowed portals of the Vatican, Cardinal Giovanni Rovina, president of the Governorate Archbishop is abducted, the Vatican gendarmerie along with Interpol are looking for answers and they believe Max Hunter is the man with the knowledge and skill to help find them.

His previous success as consulting archaeologist with the HARPA team and their recent discoveries of Atlantis, Noah’s Ark, the Titanic and the Flaming Sword of St Michael has unfortunately made him the ‘go-to’ person for matters such as these. Not a role he relishes!

Facing his friend’s death and wondering at the sign scrawled in blood next to his body leads to a trail of lies, deceit, secrets and death that will test Max and his friends from HARPA, called in to help, as they race against time to try and rescue Cardinal Rovina.

The Vatican is refusing to cooperate fully as the Brotherhood of the Serpent is demanding an Icon kept hidden within the Vatican archives for centuries as the ransom to release Cardinal Rovina. The Vatican believe that this is the key to a secret so dangerous that if ever discovered will destabilise the not only Christianity but the very foundations of the Catholic Church.

Once again Rob Sinclair has carefully researched his subject and crafted an intricate and delicately woven tale of the many aspects of greed and power together to create a cliff-hanger of a read which will enthral until the unexpected becomes the expected.
