A centuries-old order of nuns is being disbanded, and their multi-million-dollar assets from past endowments will eventually devolve to the Vatican. But three alumnae of one of the Sisters' private schools see a way to grab the fortune and become fabulously rich - with no one losing except the Vatican. The three women set out to win the confidence of the Sisters for a daring scam - vowing to follow through, come what may. What seems like a safe bet then turns murky, as their scheme launches a chain reaction with shocking - and deadly - results. The action ranges from New England to the Cayman Islands, Quebec, Great Britain and Africa, involving some very human Sisters, a cigar-smoking bishop, a Caymanian solicitor with his own ideas about the money at stake, an embittered RAF test pilot, a relentless hit man and one or two rather sinister Nigerian con artists. "I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a wild literary ride!" - James L. Nelson, Author & Historian
