Acts Of The Assassins
A Resurrection Thriller by Richard Beard
Richard Beard introduced his new novel at the 2015 Edinburgh Book
Festival. He was paired with a German writer who had written a book on the
re-appearance of Adolf Hitler in our times. We were told that Beard had a
similar story to tell about how our times would deal with the miracle of the
resurrection. Not quite, the novel’s place is Jerusalem, a city enclosed by a
wall and under Roman occupation. The characters involved are those known
in the Bible. But here enters a 007 figure called Gallio, the speculator, a
secret agent of the imperial Gestapo. He ‘does counter- insurgency’, a
charismatic cult-leader is dead, and Gallio oversaw that man’s execution.
The theft of the body he was supposed to be guarding would ruin his career.
