Biblical scholar Jonathan Lyons believes he has found the rarest of parchments -- a letter that may have been written by Jesus Christ. Stolen from the Vatican Library in the 1500s, the letter was assumed to be lost forever. Now, under the promise of secrecy, Jonathan is able to confirm his findings with several other experts. But he also confides in a family friend his suspicions that someone he once trusted wants to sell the parchment and cash in. Within days Jonathan is found shot to death in his study. At the same time, his wife, Kathleen, who is suffering from Alzheimer's, is found hiding in the study closet, incoherent and clutching the murder weapon. It is up to their daughter, twenty-eight-year old Mariah to clear her mother of murder charges and unravel the real mystery behind her father's death. (less)
