ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

WELCOME TO THE RENAISSANCE. WELCOME TO CHAOS.

Alberto Caliani, the breakout author of the historical novel honored with two 2021 Hislibris awards, returns with a story that will shake the very foundations of the genre.

Turin, sixteenth century. This is a story about corrupt men with a noble pursuit, and noblemen who commit atrocities.

It is also a tale of madness and superstition; of a merciless inquisitor and a young engineer born ahead of her time; of a father and son that hate and need each other; of an unscrupulous hustler who will discover he is worth more than he believes; of a teenager fleeing from herself until she finds herself at the brink of death, and of a mysterious invisible murderer lurking in the dark.

But above all, it is an epic tale of violence and intrigues to destroy the Pope in Rome and the powerful families that keep a war-weakened Italy divided, all underpinned by a huge lie that will last throughout the ages.
