520    "The Ghent Altarpiece is the most violated work of art in 
       the world. Thirteen times it has been vandalized, 
       dismantled, or stolen. Why? What secrets does it hold? 
       Enter UNESCO investigator, Nicholas Lee, who works for the
       United Nations' Cultural Liaison and Investigative Office 
       (CLIO). Nick's job is to protect the world's cultural 
       artifacts-including countless lesser-known objects and 
       national treasures. When Nick travels to Belgium for a 
       visit with a woman from his past, he unwittingly stumbles 
       onto the trail of a legendary panel from the Ghent 
       Altarpiece, stolen in 1934 under cover of night and never 
       seen since. Soon Nick is plunged into a bitter conflict, 
       one that has been simmering for nearly two thousand years.
       On one side are the Maidens of Saint-Michael, les Vautours
       --the Vultures--a secret order of nuns and the guardians 
       of a great truth. Pitted against them is the Vatican, 
       which has wanted for centuries to both find and possess 
       what the nuns guard. Because of Nick, the maidens have 
       finally been exposed, their secret placed in dire jeopardy
       --a vulnerability that the Vatican swiftly moves to 
       exploit by utilizing an ambitious cardinal and a corrupt 
       archbishop, both with agenda of their own. From the 
       tranquil canals of Ghent to the towering bastions of 
       Carcassonne and finally into an ancient abbey high in the 
       French Pyrenees, Nick Lee must confront a modern-day 
       religious crusade intent on eliminating a shocking truth 
       from humanity's past."--Container.
