Thriller Police Procedural
Under the Pantheon’s great dome, a woman’s body lies on the
marble floor, carefully positioned with a gruesome carving
on her back. This horrific murder hurtles Rome’s police
force into a collision with U.S. agents -- and a secret
that has festered for fifteen years, now unraveling in the
world’s most enigmatic city.
When Detective Nic Costa arrives at the scene, he is
unprepared for what he finds, or for the ambush that leaves
his only witness vanished into the night. The dead woman
was American. Within hours, U.S. agents descend with a take-
no-prisoners style and a shocking story to tell: the killer
has struck before, in monuments all over the world, leaving
the same cryptic message carved onto the bodies of the
victims. But one agent, beautiful, blond Emily Deacon, has yet
another story to tell Nic -- about a stunning act of
deception that may lead back to the U.S. government, and
her own chilling, personal connection to the killer. Now,
as the first murder leads to more grisly slayings and a
motley crew of veteran Roman cops jousts with the
Americans, Nic is pulled into a woman’s harrowing search
for the truth -- a search that will take them both into the
mind of a madman, into a shocking conspiracy -- and into a
dark episode in a nation’s long-forgotten past.
