Synopsis:

In 1532, in the French town of Chambery, an attempt to steal the Holy Shroud resulted in a tragic accident which nearly caused it to be destroyed in a fire.


In 1772, a man connected to the attempted robbery was helped to escape from the catacombs of Vatican City where he was being held captive. 


In the present day, the professor of history Faustino Rovira disappears from Madrid’s Universidad Complutense without a trace, but his friend and fellow professor Mario Faberti discovers the secret which connects his friend to the man who, centuries ago, tried to get hold of the Holy Shroud. 


A secret which the Vatican will never allow to be revealed.
