Sacred Corruption

Can an ambitious, single woman escape from her original sin? Can the most enduring human virtue, love, withstand the most rationalized Machiavellian virtue, institutionalized corruption?

Her fate lies in her faith and it is her faith that holds the darkest of secrets. And a ten-year old, unrequited, unmentionable love affair seals her fate and the fate of Father Francesco Ghirotto. "They shot Father Francesco Ghirotto on orders from the Vatican. It was damage control."
