The Seville Communion

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A hacker has made his way into the Pope's personal computer and left a warning about the threatened demolition of a small church in Seville. Two people have already died in the church in mysterious circumstances. The Vatican's Information Service sends one of its agents, Lorenzo Quart, to investigate. Quart is slowly drawn into the web of intrigue and mystery that surrounds the church and those who believe that their survival depends on the building's salvation or destruction. In Seville, where the modern and the medieval disconcertingly mix, he faces the different challenges presented by the Archbishop, an ambitious young banker and his dangerously attractive wife, and a stubborn old priest, prepared to die rather than see his church demolished. The Seville Communion shows again how skilfully P rez-Reverte can combine narrative drive and tight plotting with sophisticated characterisation and dazzling intellectual fireworks.
