The Book of Q cover

The Book of Q will prove to be amongst the best historical thrillers of the year.

After the mysterious death of one Vatican priest and the disappearance of
another, Father Ian Pearse, an American working on early Christian texts
in the Vatican, comes into possession of a mysterious scroll. He
discovers ingeniously coded letters and the text of an ancient prayer never before found in written form.

These reveal a conspiracy, by a sect long-thought dead, reaching deep
into the present Vatican hierarchy.

It becomes a race against a ruthless unknown opponent, which takes
Father Pearse from the Vatican, via an ancient Greek monastery, to war-
torn Bosnia.

'The Book of Q and The Overseer by New York novelist Jonathan Rabb easily out-manoeuvre Brown in grand and dark ecclesiastical designs.' Boyd Tonkin -- The Independent
