The Fifth Gospel: A Novel

The instant New York Times bestseller from the author of the international sensation The Rule of Four combines a lost gospel, a contentious relic, and a dying popeâ€™s final wish into a â€œdeliciously labyrinthineâ€ (Providence Journal) intellectual thriller that â€œkicks off at ninety mph and doesnâ€™t slow downâ€ (Associated Press).

A mysterious exhibit is under construction at the Vatican Museums. The curator is murdered at a clandestine meeting on the outskirts of Rome a week before it opens. That same night, a violent break-in rocks the home of Greek Catholic priest Father Alex Andreou. When the papal police fail to identify a suspect in either crime, Father Alex decides that to find the killer he must reconstruct the secret of what a little-known, true-to-life fifth gospel known as the Diatessaron reveals about the churchâ€™s most controversial holy relic. But just as he begins to understand the truth about his friendâ€™s death and its consequences for the future of the Christian church, Father Alex discovers a ruthless stalker is hunting himâ€”an enemy with a vested stake in the exhibit that he must outwit to survive.

Rich, authentic, erudite, and emotionally searing, The Fifth Gospel is a riveting novel of suspense and a feast of biblical history that satisfies on every level.
