really liked it

Excellent read! It almost felt like historical fiction because there was quite a lot about the traditions of the conclave and also where the outside world is deliberately shut out for the process of electing a new pope, it almost might have been set 400 years ago.
I'm lucky enough to have visited Rome and the Vatican and it really helped me to visualise the setting. I also saw a programme about the Borgias and a dramatised version of the Conclave, so when I saw this book I knew I would have to read it.
This book has plenty of intrigue and thrills and it really kept me guessing. It's quite a short book and I found it hard to put down.. if you fancy a book with a thrill of a different kind, this book could be for you. Recommended.
