Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In her long career as America’s most beloved suspense writer, Mary Higgins Clark delivers her most astonishing novel to date. At its heart is a discovery that could be the most revered document in human history—“the holiest of the holy”—and certainly the most coveted object in the world. Biblical scholar Jonathan Lyons believes he has found an extraordinary parchment—a letter that may have been written by Jesus Christ. Stolen from the Vatican Library in the 1500s, it was thought lost forever. Under a promise of secrecy, Jonathan confirms his findings with experts but confides in a family friend about his suspicion that someone close to him intends to sell the parchment for profit. Shortly after, Jonathan is found shot in his study, and his wife, Kathleen, suffering from Alzheimer’s, is discovered hiding in the closet, clutching the murder weapon. Despite her dementia, Kathleen is aware of her husband's long-term affair. Did she kill him in a jealous rage, as the police suggest? Or is his death connected to the missing priceless parchment? Their daughter, twenty-eight-year-old Mariah, must clear her mother of murder charges and uncover the truth behind her father’s death. This gripping narrative intertwines a murder mystery with a quest for a potentially invaluable religious artifact.
