Posljednja vremena

Through a secret mission on which the Vatican sends the central character, Father Ilija Schäfer, a Carmelite priest, he gets involved in a series of crises and shenanigans that affect the ultimate destiny of the Church. Father Ilija is a convert from Judaism, surviving witness of the Holocaust, once a powerful person in Israel. For twenty years he was a reclusive monk, and now the Pope entrusts him with the most sensitive task: to get close to a man he believes could be the Antichrist. This gives birth to a rich and tense story in which Father Ilija moves to Europe and the Middle East, moves in public and secret circles of world power, meets saints and sinners, presidents, judges, mystics, militant Catholic journalists, faithful priests and a traitorous conspiracy within the Church itself. I have read thousands of books, and this is one of the great ones. I hope that tens of thousands will read it and be moved as I was. It is a novel that keeps you in suspense like a thriller - it really is a thriller, but also something much deeper. There is love and friendship, intertwined with drama, but what is important is faith, faith in Christ. Sheldon Vanakuen, writer
