From international bestseller Glenn Cooper, known for his Vatican thrillers and historical mysteries, comes his most intimate novel yet — a literary exploration of secrecy, conscience, and spiritual burden.
Anthony Budd is a quiet, reform-minded cardinal — young, devout, and untainted by scandal. When deadlock in the papal conclave threatens to fracture the Church, his name emerges as a compromise. He accepts the will of God with humility. But buried beneath his composure is a secret he has carried for decades — a truth that could upend everything he believes, and everything the Church demands of him.
As Pope Innocent XIV, Budd must navigate the brutal realities of Vatican politics, the weight of his vows, and the quiet threat of blackmail from a voice in the shadows. Someone knows who he is. And they intend to destroy him.
The Silence of Flesh is a novel of inner war — a man at odds with the Church he loves, the body he inhabits, and the truth that may undo both.”
