The Saint Bernard Inquest
A Courtroom Drama of the Early Alps

About this book:

High in the icy wilderness of the Great St. Bernard Pass, a nobleman’s vanished heir sparks a deadly mystery that threatens to shake the fragile peace between empire, church, and the relentless Alps. When Brother Antoine and his loyal mastiff uncover a frozen servant and a desperate Count Ludovico, they are drawn into a web of political intrigue, buried relics, and a chilling avalanche that hides more than just snow.

As the Hospice monks race against blizzards and time to save a young life, they uncover secrets sealed in ice—ledgers, false saints, and a confession that could condemn an entire order. The Saint Bernard Inquest blends courtroom drama with stark alpine survival, exposing how faith, power, and the mountain itself judge the souls of those who dare to cross its heights.

If you crave a tale where every footstep could be a last breath and every testimony could tip the scales of justice, step into the frozen pass and discover the truth that lies beneath the ice.
