When Chris Bronson's best friend's wife is found dead all the evidence points to.murder despite the Italian police calling it a suicide. Then Chris and his friend Mark uncover a stone bearing the inscription "Here lie the liars'" in Latin. Soon Chris is on a mission with his ex-wife Angela Lewis to uncover the meaning behind the stone.
This book hits the ground running from the get-go and doesn't stop to the very end. However, it definitely has an anti-christian slant and particularly an anti-catholic bias. Keeping in mind that it is fiction, that premise gets worn out, but I guess it's safe to bash the Christian church. Good story if you can overlook that.
