Product Description
In the dead of night, December 1939, a train winds its way through Italy towards the Alps with a cargo too precious to destroy, too awful to reveal. On board is an iron box. Its sinister contents, documents concealed for centuries, could rip apart the Christian world and set religion against religion, an entire people against another. Now, as the Nazi threat marches inexorably closer, good men and evil are drawn into a violent and deadly hunt. The richest aristocrat in Italy is responsible for the documents' safety, but he's marked for death by the Nazis. Some people want the secrets told. Some people want to plunge the world into a catastrophic holy war ...

About the Author

Excellent book
This was an excellent read, couldn't drop it once I started.
Gemini Contenders
This for me was Ludlum's best but then it was the first I read and read cover to cover in one sitting. The denuement was a little less than expected but it started me as a Ludlum collector.
