   Summary

   Aldo Bellini and Goffredo Tedesco try to fix themselves and each other with mixed results.
   Vincent Benítez didn't sign up for any of this but ends up doing a better job anyway.
   Thomas Lawrence has been managing these idiots all his adult life (and people think running a conclave is a thankless job).

   Summary

   The joyous papacy of Innocent XIV has no place for Aldo Bellini. He knows the worst of himself—knows he should, rightly, be cast aside. And yet, he is still so terribly hungry.

   Exiled with his worst enemy, desperate for what he can’t even name, he is caught between Venice and Rome, the sinner he is and the saint he wants to be.
