About the Book
She uncovered a secret that powerful men will kill to protect.
Former nun Dr. Jackie McBride once sought heaven. Now, as an astrophysicist, she searches the heavens for truth.
When Jackie uncovers collusion between the Vatican Observatory and a shadow American cabal, she finds evidence of a suppressed reality guarded for generations with lethal force.
The Fatima File contains a revelation powerful enough to fracture the foundations of religious belief—and expose the military-industrial security state.
Now Jackie is a target.
As CIA operatives close in, she joins forces with a disillusioned FBI agent, a Jesuit priest, and a devout circle of young Shi’ah Muslims.
Together they follow a trail of deception from Fatima to Rome to Mount Sinai.

The Fatima File: The Case of the Missing Millennium is a conspiracy thriller of religious-political intrigue, covert power, and a revelation that could redefine reality.
