Cardinal Alessandro Torretti is America's most valuable Vatican asset—until his cover is blown. Operative Sam Wick has forty-eight hours to extract him before foreign intelligence services strike. The mission seems straightforward until Wick discovers his handler Sofia is the Cardinal's daughter, hidden for thirty years as an academic researcher.
Captain Santini has been selling Vatican secrets while feeding lies to foreign operatives. Now he's brought contractors to eliminate everyone who can expose his corruption
In the tunnels beneath St. Peter's Basilica, a father and daughter have three minutes to be family before duty tears them apart forever.

About Wick Files:
Every legend has a beginning. Wick's is classified.
Before Sam Wick became the ghost that governments deny and enemies pray they never see, he was new. Raw talent, zero margin for error, and a handler who expected him to figure it out or not come back.
These are those early ops, the ones that built him. Hostile embassies. Cartel strongholds. Former allies turned traitors. From the Swiss Alps to the Venezuelan underworld, each mission is standalone, self-contained, and brutal. Wick follows one rule: complete the mission. At any cost.
Fast, relentless, and unflinchingly real. This is where the legend began.
