About this audiobook
Father Thomas, a meticulous and devoted priest, finds his world upended when a high-stakes financial audit within the Vatican uncovers secrets meant to stay buried. As he delves deeper, he crosses paths with Nikolai, a cold, lethal operative from the Russian mafia. What begins as a professional collision between two men from diametrically opposed worlds quickly evolves into a dangerous, forbidden attraction. Set against the atmospheric, shadowed corridors of Rome and the untamed landscapes of the Canary Islands, the pair must navigate a treacherous storm of corruption, betrayal, and international danger. Bound by secrets and a relentless pursuit, Thomas and Nikolai discover that survival depends on trust, forcing them to choose between their vows and an undeniable love that may be the only path to absolute freedom.
