Great new book by Steve Berry. He introduces a new character, Nicholas Lee. He works for UNESCO in the United Nations Cultural Liaison and Investigative Office (CLIO). His job is to protect the world's cultural artifacts, from countless lesser-known objects to national treasures. He travels to Belgium for a visit with a woman from his past and unwittingly stumbles onto the trail of a legendary panel from the Ghent Altarpiece, stolen in 1934 under cover of night and never seen since. He gets in the middle of a conflict between the Vatican and the Maidens of Saint-Michael, les Voutours, the Vultures, a secret order of nuns and the guardians of a great truth. The book is fast paced with lots of twists and turns. Nick reminds me a lot of Cotton Malone, Steve Berry's other main character in his books. You will not be disappointed in this book!
