“A Pius Man” by Declan Finn revolves around Giovanni Figlia and his task to protect the new African pope who stirs up controversy for wanting to make Pius XII - otherwise known as the Hitler pope - a saint. Making things worse, a body falls down from a hotel and another is burned in a hotel within Vatican territory. An investigation leads to more mysterious deaths. Sean Ryan, an American mercenary, was employed by the Pope but things only went from bad to worse. Scott Murphy of Israeli intelligence was also sent to Rome after one victim was an AL-Qaeda operative. Sean, Scott and Giovanni, the head of the Vatican security, must now try and figure out this mystery, and soon the pope himself begins to look like a suspect.

“A Pius Man” is a must read for those who love a good mystery. The Vatican and its mysteries add to the intrigue in this engaging story. Author Declan Finn provides a good plot and a great setting, creating a thrilling and exciting story. I could not resist its alluring charm. The first few pages of this book will surely get you hooked and the flow of the story will keep you guessing.
