Description
Sonora, Mexico, 1766-1767. Father Ygnacio Pfefferkorn, SJ, is called to investigate the murder at Ures Mission of an army captain whose death is blamed on the local missionary. The pursuit involves a beautiful widow, discovery of illegitimate commerce (gun-running) by a high Jesuit official. During the hunt, Ygnacio is captured by hostile Apaches and escapes thanks to the chief's Christian wife. The entire Company of Jesuits is arrested and expelled by order of King Carlos III. Ygnacio solves the murder only after his arrest in 1767.
