註釋A young minister is sent to arrange a funeral. The dead man died under peculiar circumstances, and the dead man's young companion knows more than he's telling. This unlikely pair is drawn into a web of intrigue that involves murder, billions in stolen gold, blackmail, espionage, kidnapping, a global disaster, and a plot to create a new Nazi world order. Before it is all over, a fraudulent evangelist is exposed, shots ring out in a darkened churchyard, a young reporter gets a chance at national fame, the minister falls in love, a bishop announces astonishing news, and more than one person is dead. The sub-text of this fast-paced novel raises questions about the manipulation of the faithful for financial gain, links between religious bodies and politics, the possible rise of fascism in America, and celebrates how love is often found in the most unlikely relationships.
