The Book Club book

The Pope is dead.  One hundred and eighteen cardinals from around the world will vote in the election of the next leader of the Catholic Church.  Cardinal Lomeli has the task of managing the vote.  How will he cope with the ambition, and the rivalry of these holy men? 

 Geoff says:

"This is a gripping read!  It is dramatically told, fast paced, and full of intrigue.  And it has a great ending.  There is a powerful feeling of authenticity; we feel that we are right there in the Sistine Chapel."
