«El monje y el venerable» is the historical thriller by Christian Jacq, published by Styria in hardback (256 pages, in Spanish).
In 1944, the Gestapo arrests a Benedictine monk and a venerable Freemason, both members of the Resistance, and confines them in a German fortress. A Himmler agency tries to extract from them the secrets of religious orders and initiatic societies while their irreconcilable faiths clash: God and the Great Architect of the Universe.
Translation by Beatriz Iglesias of the French original «Le Moine et le vénérable», first published in 1985.
For readers of historical thrillers and World War II intrigue, curious about Freemasonry and religious orders.
Christian Jacq is a French author and Egyptologist. He has written several novels about ancient Egypt, notably a five book series about pharaoh Ramses II, a character whom Jacq admires greatly.
