Archangels: Rise of the Jesuits - Kindle Fiction

Archangels: Rise of the Jesuits 
by Janet M. Tavakoli 

WHEN CONTROL OF THE VATICAN IS AT STAKE, MONEY TALKS AND NOBODY PLAYS FAIR.

When Italian intelligence specialist Michael Visconte investigates the murder of a Jesuit priest, the priest turns out to be a hedge fund manager with an unblemished record of extraordinary returns. Although the Pope rules the Vatican sovereign state as the ultimate oligarchy, the Jesuits ask Visconte, their former student, to help them bring justice.

Michael soon finds himself in the middle of a struggle for power and control over the finances of the Vatican. But his lucky break—one that should provide critical evidence—only blurs the lines between good and evil and endangers the lives not only of Michael and the Jesuits but of his wife and children.
