«El apóstol número 13» is the historical novel by Michel Benoît, published by Grijalbo in hardback (416 pages, in Spanish).
A learned monk, former Benedictine and specialist in the origins of Christianity, seeks the trace of an apostle silenced in the sacred texts. The plot spans from the 1st to the 20th century between Judea, a French abbey and the Vatican, where deaths and manipulations protect a secret that disturbs Catholics, Jews and Muslims.
Translation by Luis Miralles de Imperial Llobet. It is Michel Benoît's first novel, published in Spanish in 2007; original title: Le secret du treizième apôtre.
It will appeal to those seeking in the historical novel a religious intrigue with an erudite background, in the vein of The Name of the Rose.
