The terms included in the book range from the well-known, like "blitz" and "punt," to the more uncommon: Alligator arms: A term coaches, players, and television commentators frequently use to describe and disparage a receiver who keeps his arms protectively tucked in close to his ribs, instead of stretched out to catch the ball. Chain gang: The officials on the sideline who hold the yardage and down markers. Pancake: A forceful block, usually by an offensive lineman, tight end, or fullback, that sets an opposing lineman completely on his back, taking him out of play.". Inscribed by Author.

"From Danile Silva, the internationally acclaimed #1 New York Times bestselling author, comes a riveting new thriller. Legendary spy and art restorer Gabriel Allon has slipped quietly into Venice for a much needed holiday with his wife and two young childre. But when Pope Paul VII dies suddenly, Gabriel is summoned to Rome by the Holy Father's loyal private secretary, Archbishop Luigi Donati, A biillion Catholic faithful have been told that the pope died of a heart attack. Donati, however, has two good reasons to suspect his master was murdered. The Swiss Guard who was standing watch outside the papal apartments the night of the pope's death is missing. So, too, is the letter the Holy Father was writing during the final hours of his life. A letter that was addressed to an old friend: Gabriel. "Whiile researching in the Vatican Secret Archives, I came upon a most remarkable book." The book is a long-suppressed gospel that calls into question the accuracy of the New Testament's depiction of one of the most portentous events in human history. For that reason alone, the Order of St. Helena will stop at nothing to keep it out of Gabriel's hands. A shadowy Catholic society with ties to the European far right, the Order is plotting to seize control of the papacy. And it is only the beginning. As the cardinals gather in Rome for the start of the conclave, Gabriel sets out on a desperate search for proof of the Order's conspiracy, and for a long-lost gospel with the power to put an end to two thousand years of murderous hatred. His quest will take him from the Ponte Vechio in Florence to a monastery in Assisi, to the hidden depths of the Secret Archives, and finally to the Sistine Chapel, where he will witness an event no outsider has ever before seen - the sacred passing of the Keys of St. Peter to a newly elected pope. Swiftly paced and elegantly rendered, The Order will hold readers spellbound, from the opening passages to the stunning final plot twist. It is a novel of friendship and faith in a perilous and uncertain world. And it confirms yet again that Daniel Silva is his generation's finest writer of suspense and international intrigue." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Signed by Author(s).
