The Gospel of Thomas

After receiving a mysterious message from the Congolese cardinal, Simon Mulangu, President Thomas Bremanger orders U.S. intervention in the imminent papal election. Bill Never, the attorney general, and top players at the NSC, NSA, CIA, State Department and West Wing of the White House quickly assemble a special unit to carry out covert actions. But as turf wars erupt between team members, a seductive intern reports unguarded details to her Chinese handlers. The country's interests, the lives of President Bremanger and Cardinal Mulangu, and the fate of reunification of the Christian Church depend on the success of American operatives and the sacred conclave of Roman Catholic cardinals.
