| Eminence Luca Rossini was once a young priest savagely tortured by the Argentinian military in the 1970s. To cover up the scandal, Rossini was taken back to Rome and kept in exile. Under the patronage of the reigning pontiff, he has become a cardinal, one of the church's most efficient diplomats and a member of the Electoral College. When the reigning pope dies, Luca loses his patron-though not his power or his iron will-and his faith, already shaken by his past, is tested anew.
