Mummified bodies are going missing. Angel, a mafia informant on the run, follows the advice of his therapist to join the dots and tell the story.
An embalmed Egyptian priest disappears from an Oxford museum. Then the body of the apostle St Mark vanishes from the high altar of the Basilica of San Marco in Venice. The Pope appoints the soft hearted and eccentric Inspector Panettone to track down the missing Saint, but his investigation must unravel a complex web.
A secret group of activists seeking to repatriate ancient treasures have their sights set on the Elgin Marbles.
A new team established in Oxford to solve mysteries from the distant past is trying to find Atlantis and the missing tomb of Alexander the Great.
In the shadows the Inspector's old mafia enemies are at work, but what are they up to?
Are these threads all entwined or are they just distracting coincidences? As Panettone and Angel struggle to make connections that will bring the investigation and the story to a conclusion, the stakes for both are high. Panettone's inheritance is at risk, but Angel may lose his own marbles. As his storytelling shows, there is already a hole in the bag.
Imagine a cocktail of Montalbano, Indiana Jones and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy with a twist of something darker.
