Welcome to Florence, 1517, a world of intrigue, opulence, and betrayal. Seventeen-year-old conwoman Rosa Cellini enters the city the same day as the corrupt Medici pope, Leo X. This is not a coincidence. The new pope is extorting a mountain of indulgence money from the people of Florence, and Rosa has a plan to take it back.
To pull off the Renaissance’s greatest robbery, she’ll recruit a team of highly skilled misfits: Sarra the tinkerer, Khalid the fighter, Giacomo the master of disguise, and to smooth their entrance into the fortresslike Palazzo Medici, the famed artist Michelangelo.
But as the Medici’s noose pulls tighter, old secrets surface and tensions start to flare. This robbery could be the key to saving the city—if Rosa and company don’t destroy each other first.
