Title : Michelangelo and the Banquet of the Damned - Didier Convard - book

Summary :

Milan, 1508. Vittore, the provost, who is about to celebrate his 57th birthday, has decided to get married. The day he makes this wise and belated decision, a head is found in the baptistery of Saint Ambrose. It rests on a silver platter, on which are crudely engraved these three words: Venit Sol Iustitiae – The sun of justice has shone. Nothing about this murder is ordinary. Neither the attitude of the Bishop of Milan, who seems to fear the worst of cataclysms, nor the sudden arrival of the famous Michelangelo, who has come from Rome where he was painting a fresco in the Sixtus Chapel. Charged with investigating this affair, Vittore, renowned for his brilliant intelligence, is hard pressed to unravel the threads. Especially since he is not insensitive to the charms of the victim's ravishing widow.

Didier Convard once again succeeds in surprising and exciting with this striking evocation of the Italian Renaissance. Eric Adam, dBD.
