Murder At The Altar - Book Preview With Reading

Back


Reporter Terry Phillips investigates the 1933 assassination of Armenian Archbishop Ghevont Tourian in "Murder at the Altar" (Hye Books, 2008). On 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 Journalist Terry Phillips reveals new details including previously unpublished facts and photographs in this historical novel dramatizing the events. For more information, visit HyeBooks.com
