But where exactly was the beginning? Was it the savage blow to the back of Father Gorman`s head? Or was it when the priest`s assailant searched him so roughly he tore the clergyman`s cassock?

Wherever the beginning lies, Mark and his sidekick, Ginger Corrigan, may soon have cause to wish they`d never found it!
