2021brossura I servizi segreti sono sulle tracce di Sophia Madlane, una donna americana che sembra custodire oscuri segreti. Un esorcista spagnolo, Juan de Tuleda, viene coinvolto nella vicenda quando la donna si reca proprio da lui per chiedere aiuto. Juan accetterà di accompagnare Sophia in un singolare viaggio alla ricerca di una antica eresia sulla nascita del Male: i ricordi perduti del Diavolo, le ragioni della sua primordiale rivolta. Ma potenti organizzazioni sono interessate ad acquisire questa verità, e grande sarà la sorpresa del giovane nello scoprire che a muovere le fila, come un gran burattinaio, si cela proprio 'lui', Satana, il biblico principe dell'Inferno. Intrappolato in una trama più grande di lui, ed invaghito della donna, Juan tenterà di comporre il mosaico delle religioni, fino a quando, come in un gioco di specchi, il Principe del Mondo mostrerà il suo vero volto, ed il giovane si smarrirà sulle soglie dell'abisso. Eresie medievali, templarismo, esoterismo, culti egizi, tutto trova collocazione in una trama incalzante condotta sul filo dell'ironia, che offre una imprevedibile, ma coerente, teologia "alternativa".

2020brossura Un bambino senza passato viene rapito da un orfanotrofio israeliano. Nello stesso tempo il direttore di un osservatorio astronomico si suicida dopo aver ricevuto un oscuro messaggio da parte del Vaticano. Un fenomeno astronomico sta per verificarsi nella volta celeste e il bambino sembra costituire l'elemento di un antico rituale che qualcuno vuol celebrare. L'unico che può fare luce sulla vicenda è Juan de Tuleda, un ex gesuita, esperto di esoterismo, che viene forzatamente coinvolto dai servizi israeliani. Ma Juan non è un sacerdote comune: è appena uscito da un ospedale psichiatrico, dove ha sepolto il suo passato tormentato di esorcista e ha perduto la fede. Inoltre il giovane è coinvolto personalmente nei fatti, in quanto il bambino è il figlio di una donna che aveva amato. Sotto la guida di un personaggio legato alla massoneria, l'indagine condurrà Juan in Egitto, tra le Piramidi, sorvegliato dai governi e da sette religiose, e ad una conferenza universitaria, dove una stravagante archeologa, Demetra Zarkos, potrà aiutarlo a svelare un complotto che coinvolge potere terreno, saperi antichi ed esseri trascendenti. Sono le stelle a custodire l'ultimo grande segreto delle religioni, un segreto celato nei testi sacri e in grado di ribaltare il cielo.
2016brossura Uno scienziato viene ucciso in circostanze insolite prima di rivelare una importante scoperta. Faceva parte di un progetto internazionale che indagava l'origine biologica del sentimento religioso, e il suo lavoro viene recuperato dalla giovane e intraprendente dottoressa Sibylle Grayel, che decide di proseguire gli studi. Ma molte potenze sono interessate ad appropriarsi di questo lavoro: alcune per sopprimerlo, altre per utilizzarlo a fini politici o commerciali. Nell'indagine viene coinvolto anche un teologo, Juan de Tuleda, esperto della cosiddetta sindrome di Gerusalemme, una patologia che colpisce i devoti nella Città Santa. Ma Juan non è solo un esperto di possessioni mistiche; è anche un ex esorcista, che ha avuto esperienze dirette con forze trascendenti, l'unico che si renda conto dell'enorme rischio che gli esperimenti sulla fede comportano. Angeli e demoni sembrano ruotare intorno al gruppo di scienziati in un mosaico molto più complesso, che condurrà fino alla scoperta di un incredibile complotto in seno alla cristianità e a svelare il segreto della "meccanica della fede".
