Eminence

Description

In the last days of the pope's life, debate rages over his successor. Even the pope's personal diaries reveal his doubts about the future of the Catholic Church. Eyes turn towards Luca, Cardinal Rossini, once traumatised by torture and degradation as a young priest in Argentina, now a favoured cardinal in the Vatican. A maverick, he is by his own admission a flawed man, but he has the power and influence to be a possible candidate for election. Now, just as the Church has most need of him, he is plunged back into his past, re-igniting a love affair which he long ago left for dead ISBN:9781860466144
