About this title

Synopsis

""An Indian is elected the Pope. He decides to clean up the Church, focussing primarily on three issues: Reopen an inquiry into the purchase of counterfeit bonds the Vatican had made in recent years, knowing they were fake. Throw open the vaults of the Vatican archives containing incriminating documents on the Church-Nazi-Fascist nexus. Three, name and shame members of the clergy involved in child sex abuse. Vested interests, within the Vatican and outside, face ruin if the truth were to come out. The Pope has to be stopped. A conspiracy is hatched to assassinate him during his tour of India. The plot extends from Rome to Palermo, from Mauritius to New York, Quetta to Islamabad, and Chennai to Delhi. National Security Advisor Rudra Patnaik, also known as the Viper, stumbles upon the conspiracy. He must foil the plot and unmask the conspirators.""
