A priest experiencing a crisis of faith -- and the married woman to whom he is attracted. A scroll newly discovered near Jerusalem that, if authentic, could open Christianity to a complete reinterpretation. A tragic love affair unfolding in Fascist-dominated Rome during World War II. These are the elements of a magnificent literary entertainment -- a novel that resonates with tales of love and betrayal as it deals profoundly with questions of faith and what it means to believe. 

-- At once a love story, a thriller, and a rich novel of ideas. Simon Mawer was born in England, educated at Oxford, and now lives in Italy. He is the author of four other widely praised and prize-winning novels, including Mendel's Dwarf, which was selected as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year.
