When the Abbot of Saint Anselm Monastery is found murdered, Vatican investigators Dylan Taggert and Nia Grayson are drawn into a hunt for the truth.

But this is no ordinary case, and what begins as a homicide investigation soon spirals into a centuries-old conspiracy. As Dylan and Nia dig deeper, they uncover revelations buried since the Resurrection.

Hidden beneath layers of tradition and secrecy in the Vatican lies a concealed truth: the long-suppressed influence of women within the Church. The deeper Taggert and Grayson probe, the clearer it becomes that some secrets were never meant to be unearthed.

A mystery where ancient prophecy collides with modern power, THE ABBOT'S BROTHER is the first book in the Saint Anselm Mysteries series by Mark Reps.
