With a papal election approaching, four leading cardinals vanish and a stolen antimatter device threatens Vatican City. Robert Langdon joins scientist Vittoria Vetra in following a trail through Rome, where historical symbols point toward a planned sequence of murders. Finding each location in time requires cooperation from church officials who have little reason to welcome him.
