The Key to Paradiso

The Key to Paradiso is the third in Jack Carbee's Dante Series following Trapped in the Inferno and Escape from the Inferno. Roger Smythe, the eccentric 'billionaire killer', a former British Olympic fencer who became obsessed with accumulating ancient manuscripts by famed Italian Renaissance genius Dante Alighieri, is dead. However, the stash of valuable relics accumulated through various means remains undiscovered. A quartet of petty criminals acting on behalf of the mysterious 'Priest' stumbles onto clues that lead them to the valuable collection. They, however, are disconsolate when they arrive after the Florentine authorities. Unphased and driven by the promise of wealth, they devise a daring plan; create a diversion on a quiet Sunday morning and waltz into the main police headquarters where the valuable trophies are quartered and waltz out rich men. Dr.James Stahler, his lovey wife Monique, the Italian beauty Sophia, Smythe's former wife, detective Neru and his mother, and Stahler;'s former lover are reunited in an action filled adventure.
