This thrilling addition to the bestselling Private series transports readers inside the halls of the Vatican itself when a priest is murdered—and the new lead agent at Private is the number one suspect.

Jack Morgan, ex-Marine helicopter pilot and CIA agent, is in Italy to open the latest outpost of his international private investigation firm. Its wealthy client base demands maximum force and maximum discretion.
But when a priest is murdered at the firm’s opening party, Morgan and Matteo Ricci—a decorated former Rome police inspector, now Morgan’s newly appointed deputy—come under intense scrutiny.
As Morgan and Ricci work the case, they discover that eight priests have died, all under watch of the Swiss Guard and the Vatican Police.
Private relies on the world’s most advanced forensic tools to make and break cases. This one rests on breaking the secret hold of the Holy See’s all-powerful, all knowing inner circle.
