"Breathtaking. Thrilling. Based on true events."

A priest is found brutally murdered, hanging from the altar of an ancient church. Clutched in his hand: a mysterious silver tablet—one that may lead to the long-lost treasure looted from Rome by the Goths.

From the glittering mosaics of Ravenna to a forgotten rock tomb hidden deep in Southern Italy, Professor Cariello and the relentless Colonel Camarata follow the trail of a killer—and a secret buried for over a thousand years.

An edge-of-your-seat historical thriller, rich with biblical archaeology, ancient legends, and the race for a treasure that could rewrite history.

"If you enjoy Dan Brown or Umberto Eco, you'll love the Cariello series."
"A gripping mystery steeped in history, treasure lore, and real-world secrets."
"Like Indiana Jones in Italy—impossible to put down!"
