Publisher's Synopsis
Barclay O'Neill was a first-class, well-heeled "man of the cloth" - his crusades carried him far and wide throughout the world for the sake of 'the gospel'. What he never expected was that a young woman would uncover the truth. Now, Sister Mary Agnes was running for her life, disguised as a nun, living in the sequestered foothills of a monastery in Nerinx, Kentucky. No one knew where she was - or her real identity - or so she thought. How could it be that "the serpent" would find his way to a cloistered monastery and how could someone she loved so dearly wind up dead? Who is Dante Lane? Her friend or her lover? How did he save her life long ago and will he do it again? Dante lives life on the edge, and always with his search and rescue dog, Outlaw by his side. And who would ever guess that a young man with special needs, Sammie Littlefield, would be the only person to see the serpent's face. Hayden Pierce, a dedicated journalist for a newspaper in Dallas thought he had covered every story in his prestigious career - until this one.
Always remember, the serpent is the master of disguise and he always catches his prey.
