The Julian Secret (Lang Reilly #2)

Former CIA agent Don Huff is in Seville, Spain writing a book about Sturmbahnfuher Skorzeny, an intimate member of Hitler's circle. One day when his housekeeper enters the house, she sees him shot to death. When lawyer Lang Reilly was asked by Ron's daughter to come to Spain to see if he can find any clues since the police aren't doing anything, he agrees because the deceased was his friend. Lang and his lover Gurt who is a CIA agent on leave find out that all traces of his work on the hard drive are missing and the discs are missing. After asking lots of questions he notices they are being followed. When they return to the states Lang is shot and his car is blown up. Someone wants to make sure he and Gurt don't discover something that was in the manuscript, but if they want to stay alive that is something they must do. They travel across Europe, followed by assassins who keep trying to kill them and end up in Vatican City where secrets from the third century, World War II, and the present are revealed. Thrilling, compelling sequel to THE PEGASUS SECRET, and even better than the first book. Don Huff was Lang Reilly’s friend, and now he’s been brutally murdered. Could someone be willing to commit murder to prevent the book he was writing from ever seeing the light of day? What secrets are worth killing for? Lang is determined to find the truth, but the organization that killed his friend is just as eager to kill him if he gets too close. The trail of secrets leads Lang on a deadly chase across Europe, deeper and deeper into a mystery that has been concealed since the days of the founding of the Catholic Church. Danger follows Lang with every startling revelation. But at the end of the hunt lies a final secret that will shock even Lang—if he survives long enough to find it! View Less
