About The Holy Take

The Holy Take is the first installment of The Holy Trilogy. It blends the atmospheric intrigue of Daniel Silva with the investigative sharpness of Michael Connelly.

When a meticulously choreographed robbery at a Georgia coin show coincides with a coordinated series of violent attacks across the Atlanta metro area, investigators initially believe the chaos was designed to target the Vice President. Instead, the truth proves far more unsettling: the violence was a diversion, shielding a theft tied to a clandestine network that has quietly trafficked power, artifacts, and influence for generations.

As federal and state agencies form a joint task force, the case appears to close around a violent militia compound. But beneath the surface, a deeper structure emerges—one that turns investigators into instruments and loyalty into a weapon. 

The Holy Trilogy is a layered, character-driven, thriller series that explores how institutions can be manipulated by those who understand their rules better than those sworn to uphold them. It is designed as the first novel in a series, with later books expanding into the international reach of the ancient organization.
