This eighth installment of private eye John Fulghum's adventures begins with a soft-spoken nun who walks into his smoky office with a secret too dangerous for the Church to confess. Buried bodies, vanished victims, and whispered legends spark an investigation that stretches from the seedy basements of elite universities to the gilded halls of the Vatican. Armed with a black notebook full of names and a rising body count, Fulghum and Sister Abigail uncover a web of corruption so vast it spans decades - and institutions sworn to protect the innocent. But exposing the truth might come at the cost of their lives - and the soul of a nation. Throughout the volume, with allies like Sister Abigail, a crusading reporter, and covert intelligence operatives, Fulghum must weigh truth against survival, justice against vengeance, and whether exposing the sins of the powerful will ever be enough to stop them. Fans of noir thrillers and unflinching social justice dramas will find this eighth volume of Fulghum's adventures impossible to put down
