Klappentext
Peter and Tilte are trying to track down two notorious criminals: their parents. They are the pastor and the organist respectively of the only church on the tiny island of Finø. Known for fabricating cheap miracles to strengthen their congregation's faith they have been in trouble before. But this time their children suspect they are up to mischief on a far greater scale.
When Peter and Tilte learn that scientific and religious leaders from around the world are assembling in Copenhagen for a conference they know their parents are up to something. Peter and Tilte's quest to find them exposes conspiracies terrorist plots an angry bishop a deranged headmaster two love-struck police officers a deluded aristocrat and much more along the way.
