About This Book
It's been two years since Alex Nicholas, underworld boss, was gunned down in Queens. And for all that time, his brother Michael, a respected CEO, has struggled with a secret: Alex has been communicating with him via laptop from beyond the grave. This virtual Alex can foresee dangers in Michael's path and appears to be trying to help him by tapping into surveillance systems and all the powers of the World Wide Web. Meanwhile, trouble is stirring in the historic capital cities of Rome, Berlin and Paris. Inside the Vatican, Monsignor Kurt Schlegelberger has designs to build his power and prepare for the sudden ascension of the Free Forces Party, a throwback to the Nazis. Schlegelberger will stop at nothing, but first he must deal with a new threat: someone appears to know the true story behind a series of murders in the US, committed by clergy to cover their tracks of child abuse within the Church—and the information is coming from Alex Nicholas. Dead or alive, the way to finish off Alex for good is through Michael. At the same time, Michael, racing from the United States to Europe on the trail of his brother's killers, is faced with a new mystery: did Alex really create a new breakthrough in AI technology, or is his death just another lie? This fast-paced third instalment of E.J. Simon's Michael Nicholas series will keep readers guessing to the very end.
