Veritas - R. Monaldi i F. Sorti (TheTruth)

Rita Monaldi and Francesco Sorti, who critics often compare to Umberto Eco and Alexander Dima, have managed to dig out interesting information from the ancient archives. Like their two previous historical thrillers - Imprimatur and Secretum - Veritas portrays the Baroque period, reveals intrigue, conspiracy and forgery. It forces us to radically change our relationship to history.
