Book Description Pope's diplomat. As a protege of Constable Colonna he receives the rank of captain and is sent to the town of Ancona with a secret mission to expose and neutralize a Spanish spy ring acting in the army.

Through his ingenuity and resourcefulness he finds a way to allay the Vatican's fears of the Spaniards, survives the Spanish threats, and even defeats them diplomatically.
