| Sommario/riassunto: | As Renaissance Florence descends into mayhem, Leonardo da Vinci is recruited into a daring conspiracy in this "page-turner unlike any historical novel" ( C. W. Gortner, author of The Confessions of Catherine de' Medici ). Florence ,1478 . Seeking to take power by force, the Pazzi family draws blades in church and slay the beloved ruler Giuliano de' Medici. But Giuliano's brother and co-ruler Lorenzo survives the attack. And his campaign to exact revenge on everyone involved plunges the entire city into murderous chaos. Amidst the bloodshed, a secret group of female artists enlist Leonardo da Vinci in a dangerous plot that could bring peace-or get them all killed. Under his tutelage, they will flourish as artists. And with his access, they will infiltrate some of the most elite places in Florence, unraveling one conspiracy as they build another in its place. But when one of the women goes missing, they must risk everything to find her. "A 15th-century Florence of exquisite art, sensual passion and sudden, remorseless violence comes vividly to life in Donna Russo Morin's new novel."-Nancy Bilyeau, author of The Crown |
