According to Christian tradition, the spear thrust of a Roman soldier inflicted Christ's fifth and final wound on the cross. To this day, several European museums claim to possess this infamous weapon, which is variously known as The Spear of Destiny, The Lance of Longinus or simply The Holy Spear. Because of its direct, 'intimate' contact with the incarnate body of Christ, this object is revered throughout Christendom as one of the holiest relics in existence--If it is in existence. If there is such a spear, its monetary value would be incalculable. Is it any wonder, then, that there are people who will stop at nothing to obtain it--including committing murder?
