    About this ebook

    Taking refuge turns into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse…


    In an attempt to shift the base of power in the church, the Pope's trusted advisors have convinced him that Sister Jacobine has to go.

    On the run from a Vatican hit team, Sister Jacobine seeks a safe haven with the only people she can trust. That trust nearly gets them all killed, when the ruthless killers from Rome finally track her down.

    With an army of trained killers closing in, Sister Jacobine is forced to take drastic action to disappear from the church's radar. Even if the hastily drawn-up plan succeeds, where on earth will she go?

    A Nun With A Gun is a series of short stories and novelettes about Sister Jacobine, the Pope's hitwoman. They are best read in order.

      The Education of Mrs. R.

      Sep 6, 2022

      An adolescent shriek woke her. Cockerels, she thought, cockerels, with a wry twist to the word. She lay in the dark listening. There was no use in covering her head; the screaming still came through. The soloist was suddenly submerged in the chorus.
