Broken Cross: The Exiled Priest Graham Baugh

Father Francis Bauer, a Roman Catholic priest and theologian, has a deep and unshakable faith in God and the teachings of Christ, but when his research leads him to start questioning certain exclusionary and even selfish corporate policies forming part of the 21st century church paradigm that seem to go against everything he's been taught, his faith will be tested like never before.

When his published research, detailing how the Church has strayed from the original intent of Christianity, starts to receive traction in the media, growing ever more popular even among secular circles, he finds himself at odds with his Church, stripped of all but his most basic credentials as a priest by his superiors, and urged into exile after whispered warnings about his physical safety.

Skeptical of the threat, but trusting his advocate, Bauer heeds the advice and goes on the run, narrowly avoiding a trained black-ops operative, hired by shady members deep within the Church, tasked with silencing him, one way or another. Unfortunately, keeping off of the hitmen's radar will take a genuine miracle.
