Synopsis

From celebrated New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry comes the latest installment in his wildly popular Cotton Malone series—an adventure that takes Cotton to Italy to solve a five hundred year-old mystery.  

Cotton Malone is on the hunt for a forgotten 16th century Pledge of Christ—a sworn promise made by Pope Julius II that evidences a monetary debt owed by the Vatican, still valid after five centuries—now worth in the trillions of dollars.  But collecting that debt centers around what happened to the famed Medici of Florence—a family that history says died out, without heirs, centuries ago. 

Who will become the next prime minister of Italy, and who will be the next pope? Finding answers proves difficult until Cotton realizes that everything hinges on when, and if, the Medici return.

Goodreads review by Southern Lady Reads on February 25, 2025

If you loved The Davinci Code and any heart racing Robert Langdon moments - you're going to really enjoy The Medici Return! Not my usual style but I much appreciate the gifted copy and the break from romance (which can become monotonous when you read too much of it!) I've traveled to Florence, the V......more

wIt's Steve Berry, its Italy and the Medici, how can that go wrong? Well, maybe I know too much about my homeland, maybe I know too much about the Medici, but on the whole this newest Cotton Malone adventure fell flat for me. Yes there was the Palio in Siena, but some very improbable plot lines. On......more

Cotton Malone certainly isn't getting any younger - nor am I, one who's been following his adventures for some time now (this is the 19th installment in the series). We've both long since retired - but we're both keeping our hats in the employment ring to a certain degree. Cotton has a main squeeze,......more

Goodreads review by David on February 22, 2025

I have read all 19 of the Cotton Malone series and usually really enjoy them. Sadly, this book did not measure up to the standards I expect from Steve Berry. I found the book to drag in sections and had little interest in the resolution to the story line. I was also dismayed by a number of historica......more
