Synopsis

A secret hidden in ancient scrolls could threaten one of the world's most powerful institutions.

Professor Yuri Vladishkin is excavating near the Dead Sea when he meets Moshe Yaresz, a retired Mossad analyst. In
Jerusalem, Yuri buys an old portfolio case containing papyrus scrolls, a roll of film, and a Hebrew letter. What he reads frightens him enough to consider destroying everything.

But Yuri hesitates. Before he can return to Moscow, three mysterious men pursue him through Jerusalem. He escapes and seeks help from Moshe, but his friend soon disappears without a trace.

Meanwhile, Dutch student Ilse De Weerdt unknowingly carries the same mystery home to Amsterdam after finding the discarded roll of film near the Wailing Wall. After she returns from her honeymoon, the film resurfaces and her partner Nathalie is kidnapped. Suddenly, the couple are caught in a race against time.

Then a woman is found brutally murdered in Amsterdam. Chief Inspector Hans Buurman cannot understand why she was targeted, or how the crime connects to anything he knows.

Far away, German priest Josef Schwartzstein receives a terrifying assignment from the Vatican: recover the scrolls, the film, and every print before their contents can damage the Church.

From Jerusalem to Amsterdam, Moscow and the Balkans, the search for the truth becomes a deadly international race.

One Woman Crusade is an international thriller combining mystery, espionage, kidnapping, murder, ancient scrolls, Mossad intrigue, and a Vatican secret that powerful people will do almost anything to protect.
