With the police unable to find a suspect, Father Alex investigates the secret of the Diatessaron, a little-known fifth gospel, to uncover the truth behind his friend's death.

However, Father Alex soon realizes he is being hunted by a ruthless stalker with a vested interest in the exhibit. To survive and reveal the truth, he must outwit his enemy.
