On a trip to Prague to visit an exhibition of precious objects of alchemy, Lorenzo Aragona finds himself caught in the dark murder of an old antiquarian, also fond of mysteries. He is suddenly catapulted into a hidden and disturbing world, run by a mysterious brotherhood that will force him to return to Naples. Helped by the Masons in the deciphering of a series of puzzles, but under the blackmail of shady figures who are threatening to kill him and those he holds dearest, Lorenzo finds himself in front of a real alchemic puzzle, which brings him back to studying the experiments of the famous Prince of Sansevero, who lived in Naples in 1700. The recovered traces, however, lead him away from his city, to France, looking for a stunning cathedral, containing nine mysterious mirrors. But what is this cathedral and what powerful secret is it hiding? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

He follows the trail to Italy, and ultimately, to France. The pace is steady, the villain not obvious and the history and the details of alchemy are fascinating as they discover the secret to the stolen watch...
and that is where he lost me.
I know this tale is translated from the original Italian, but somehow, somewhere, I'm missing something in the solution to the puzzle. At that moment that should have been the big "aha" - I found myself rereading it twice. Did I miss something? That was it? What was it?
Still, the book was entertaining and I enjoyed it, I was just left slightly befuddled and disappointed that the ending wasn't...more significant (or simply more obvious) than it was. Perhaps you can tell me your thoughts on the ending! ( )
