Murder At The Altar Book PreviewOn Christmas Eve morning in 1933, the spiritual leader of
Armenians in America, Archbishop Ghevont Tourian, is stabbed to
death as he begins Sunday services. His infamous murder in a
little New York City church is witnessed by hundreds of
parishioners. The next day, this story is splashed on the front page
of every major newspaper -- and no wonder. Not since the
assassination of Thomas Becket has such a high religious leader
been slain in a house of worship.
This gruesome homicide shatters the Armenian community and
confounds the cops. Was it a terrorist attack to silence a political
adversary, a KGB plot to discredit anti-communists in America, or
simply a tragic turn in an ancient, bitter dispute?
Journalist Terry Phillips reveals new details including previously
unpublished facts and photographs in this historical novel
dramatizing the events.
