| Ex-CIA officer Francis Xavier Killy is an Inquisitor, a
member of theVatican’s espionage agency—in other words, the Pope’s top gun.
As such, he is the only spy in fiction obliged to do 15 days’ penance every
time he kills someone.
In "His Eminence, Death", Killy is on a mission to protect a fanatic Cardinal from a deadly ghost, an assassin’s bullet, and his own suicidal tendencies. |
