The Cast: Frank - Conspiracy Theorist Annie - Sensationalist Reporter Luther - Jamaican Ship Captain Aston Wainwright - Brit Archaeologist  Consul William Ware - US Embassy political appointee The group started out heading to the US Consulate with Luther helping the shaken Annie - still upset from the more than creepy events of last episode.

He asked Annie over drinks to look into the strange death of the Monsignor Valdez, a Church of Rome official who had been in Cuba for perhaps a month as a investigator into the proposed Sainthood of a Father Fernandez - a former Inquisitor who had established a Monastic Order in Cuba in the 1570s. At the same time, archaeologist Professor Aston Wainwright. also in Havana, was asked by the Catholic Church to look into the murder of Msr. Valdez. The three combined efforts and after a briefing by Monsignor de Borbon about what had happened to Valdez - locked room mystery, desiccated body, heart removed, they went to the scene of the crime.  The body had been removed, but that was all, and outside the room a small shrine (candles and rosary) ha...
