Cardinal sins uncovered . . . The horrific killing of four cardinals on a quiet street in Washington, DC. Deadly threats and intrigue at the Vatican. And Jayne Robinson battling against an unknown enemy to find out the truth for a desperate pope.

Intelligence operative Robinson is deployed by the CIA to discover why the American cardinals were murdered on their way to a top-level meeting at the White House-with a mysterious message to deliver.

At the same time, a British cardinal and key ally of the pope asks Jayne to help with his own line of inquiry-before it's too late.

The case becomes increasingly complicated as the Israeli intelligence agency, the Mossad, is sucked into the drama in a most unexpected way as the international political stakes rise.

And tension mounts rapidly as Jayne fights for her life in the West Bank city of Ramallah against plotters ruthlessly determined to prevent the facts emerging.

The Confessor, book number three in the Jayne Robinson series, is a gripping modern spy thriller with sharp twists that will stun the reader.
