The dead man was not alone.
When theology professor Silas Hawthorne is found seated upright in a locked archive vault—no wounds, no signs of struggle, one hand resting on an uncatalogued manuscript—the death is ruled an anomaly, but Mathias Green doesn’t believe in anomalies.
Summoned to St. Ignatius Seminary, Mathias uncovers a manuscript that officially does not exist: The Judas Protocol—a suppressed Latin text tied to decades-old Vatican deaths under identical circumstances. The phrase at its center appears nowhere in canonical literature. It isn’t a prayer. It isn’t a confession. It’s instruction.
As whispers of a second voice echo through seminary halls and faculty records reveal years of concealed obsession, Mathias begins to see the pattern: language designed not to persuade—but to command. Not to inspire—but to unbind, and someone inside the institution is still speaking it.
In this chilling second installment of the Mathias Green Mysteries, Matthew Pearce crafts a cerebral, atmospheric thriller where theology becomes weaponized, silence is complicity, and the most dangerous thing in the room is not belief—but repetition.
Some texts are meant to be studied. This one was meant to be followed.
