Babylon A.D.


Babylon A.D.
Set in the near future, a former soldier turned mercenary is hired to escort a nun and young woman across Europe. At first he thinks it is a trivial exercise, but when two different groups of people show intense interest in the young woman, he realises that there is more to her than meets the eye. In between sneaking across borders and battling the baddies, there's plenty of action all the way.
