Synopsis

Praise for The Eye of the Virgin... "...Ramsay's trademark folksy touch, a well-rounded cast of characters, and brisk and believable dialogue, this time with an international scope." -Booklist First, a body is left in Picketsville's urgent care clinic. Then an odd break-in occurs at the home of a Callend University professor. Sheriff Ike Schwartz thinks both events might be connected to The Virgin of Tenderness, an icon in the faculty member's possession. Then a microdot is found on the icon. The presence of this bit of CIA nostalgia brings in Ike's friend Charlie Garland and the forces from Langley.Ike has no wish to engage with them. He has killers to apprehend. But a dead CIA agent and a rogue handler could trigger an international incident.... Author Frederick Ramsay is also an iconographer whose works are displayed around the world. He lives in Surprise, Arizona, with his wife and partner, Susan. www.frederickramsay.com
