About the book: 2009 / Victoria had one thought - to take revenge on the writer Dale White. This polished American stole the plot of the bestseller “The Smile of Gioconda” from her father! The girl flew to Rome and even made her way into White’s house, but at the last moment she became confused and almost got caught by the police. It’s good that Professor Carrington, an old friend of her father, was nearby in time. It is no coincidence that the professor and his son are also in Rome, they are trying to uncover one of the main secrets of the Vatican - samples of the Shroud of Turin, the main Christian shrine, provided for radiocarbon analysis, were fake! But why did the church commit such a monstrous forgery??.
