This century he's just known as Simon Pound. But Simon has a secret--he is Judas Iscariot, who made a certain Deal right after putting the rope around his own neck. Now an expert assassin for the VSS, his assignment is to guard against evil and protect the papacy from its enemies. Most of his missions are routine assassinations, but occasionally Simon also assumes the role of avenger and executioner.So what's a vile religious artifact--that had once been safely locked away in the famed secret Vatican archives--doing beneath a mall construction site in Queens? And why are people dying all around it--dying, but only after being brutally tortured? Where are the other four missing vile statuettes? Who is behind the fanatics of the New Golden Dawn, and why are they gunning for Simon Pound? And the secret demon prison beneath the Vatican is about to be breached.Simon's personal code is as ambiguous as he is.
