    Summary

    "You could always seduce him."

    "He's a priest," Aldo scoffed.

    "So?"

    Aldo flopped back onto the couch and threw an arm across his eyes.

    "I'm not going to fuck a priest, Giulio."

    "Why not? You seduce him and he lets you open the tomb because of how good your dick is, or you seduce him and then you blackmail him into letting you open the tomb. Either way you get what you want."

    He didn't want to blackmail a priest, or fuck one, but he couldn't deny the logic.

    Summary

    The path to madness was paved by grappa, wine, and misery.
    Bellini’s, Lawrence’s, and the Holy Father’s insufferable behavior at the official dinner did the rest.
    Every glance across the table tore open an existing wound, and every soft-spoken word felt like a stab of a knife.

    Instead of retiring for the night, Sabbadin accepts Tedesco's invitation to share a bottle of grappa. The night does not end as he expected.

    Summary

    “Do you always watch me that closely, Eminenza?” he asks, eyes on Aldo. Something in his voice has shifted, too, dropping it into what might almost be a conspiratorial mutter, and Aldo shouldn’t delude himself into thinking he can read anything into it. It’s been too long.

    Some doors should stay closed, especially after they’ve been slammed shut.


    After the conclave, over the course of seven days and seven conversations, Aldo Bellini is forced to retrace the steps of a past he's spent thirty years trying to forget and slowly comes to the realisation that old, buried feelings might not have been buried that deeply after all.
