Set in the year 1205, this gripping novel follows the flight of Father Vivïen de Narbonne, who is hunted by a group of masked knights because of a priceless book he possesses. Thirteen years later, Ignazio da Toledo, a merchant of relics, is tasked with recovering this mysterious manuscript, known as the "Uter Ventorum," which is said to contain ancient knowledge capable of summoning angels. The search takes Ignazio across Italy, France, and Spain, facing dangers and riddles as he discovers the book has been split into four parts. This work by Marcello Simoni, winner of the prestigious Bancarella Prize, is a fascinating historical thriller that combines mystery, adventure, and fantasy elements in a masterfully crafted plot.
