A short vacation between two book covers - the Pope crime novels are cult favorites and guarantee a good mood! Love is in the air: Contessa Giulia, the Pope's press secretary and from an old Roman noble family, is set to inherit a considerable family fortune - but only if she gets married. There is no shortage of candidates. Nor of envious relatives. However, Giulia's heart belongs to the Franciscan monk Francesco. For conservative circles in the Vatican, it is clear that God must punish sinners. And if God doesn’t do it, they are quite willing to lend a hand... Pope Peter, cheerful and fearless, must uncover a conspiracy, prevent a murder, and save love. Rejoice! Alba & Chorin combine wonderful characters, the most delightful Italian atmosphere, and charming ideas with thrilling criminal cases.
