Etiopia, 1974. El dictador Haile Selassie fue derrocado y la guerra civil en el pais africano se encuentra en su punto mas algido. Mientras tanto, en una prision en medio de la selva, el sacerdote Armano consigue escapar de sus verdugos despues de 40 anos de reclusion. Su unico delito es conocer el paradero del Santo Grial, la copa de la que bebio Cristo en la ultima cena. Poco antes de morir, tiene un encuentro fortuito con dos periodistas y una bella fotografa, y les revela su historia. Seducidos por el relato del cura y sin sospechar los peligros a los que se exponen, deciden emprender la busqueda del monasterio negro, refugio de la legendaria copa. Frank Purcell, Henry Mercado y Vivian Smith se embarcaran en una apasionante travesia que los llevara de la insondable selva etiope a Roma y de regreso. Juntos deberan enfrentar a asesinos sanguinarios y monjes fanaticos, ademas de librar las batallas que se fraguan en sus propios corazones y que dotaran de nuevo sentido a sus vidas. A sweeping adventure that’s equal parts thriller and love story, this novel takes the reader from the war-torn jungles of Ethiopia to the magical city of Rome. While the Ethiopian Civil War rages, a Catholic priest languishes in prison. Forty years have passed since he last saw daylight. His crime?

He escapes to the jungle, where he encounters two Western journalists and a beautiful freelance photographer taking refuge from the carnage. As they tend to his wounds, he relates his incredible story. Motivated by the sensational tale, the trio agrees to search for the Grail. Thus, begins an impossible quest that will pit them against murderous tribes, deadly assassins, fanatical monks, and the passions of their own hearts. La busqueda is suspenseful, romantic, and filled with heart-pounding action.
