Synopsis

Una vez mas el maestro Leonardo Da Vinci es investigado por la Santa Inquisicion cuando esta a punto de terminar una de las mas importantes obras maestras de todos los tiempos en el arte, "La Ultima Cena". La intriga se desata cuando una denuncia anonima pone en la mira al maestro ya que en esa obra a representado a todos los apostoles rompiendo con el esquema tradicional de la epoca, sin sus halos de santidad, ademas de que el esta autorretratado y dandole la espalda a Jesus, inconcebible para la iglesia de aquella epoca. Ademas de varios asesinatos en torno a la obra del maestro, existen una serie de datos historicos que nos llevan a analizar mas a fondo cada obra del maestro Da Vinci. Y como asegura el propio autor-una vez leida la novela, no volvera a ver "La Ultima Cena" con los mismos ojos. La historia transcurre en Milan en 1497.

The jury is still out on this one. While the story was intriguing and the secret of Da Vinci's Last Supper revealed on the final page was unexpected, the journey to the final destination was convulated and confusing. I am, however, willing to take some of the blame for this as I did not have nearly......more
