About the Book

Firenze,1486. Lorenzo il Magnifico ha guidato il popolo che, inneggiando al suo nome, ha piegato i traditori. Alle grate del Palazzo sono appesi per il collo i capi della Congiura. Il sole tramonta e cala la notte, gettando sul bagno di sangue una luce tetra. Ma c'e un frate che, nell'ombra, percorre i vicoli guardati a vista dai soldati fedeli ai Medici. Ha con se una spada antica, di cui nessuno deve sapere. Quindici secoli dopo, a Firenze, Brenda Miller, una ragazza originaria di Londra, si sta godendo la prima settimana di pace. Si e appena diplomata e anche gli allenamenti della sua disciplina sportiva, la scherma, stanno osservando la pausa estiva. Il suo pensiero va al ragazzo che le piace, che il giorno dopo potrebbe trovare alla festa dove lei e la sua piu cara amica, Soledad, devono fare un figurone. Ma Brenda non sa che da quella festa verra portata via, da suo padre, perche stanno correndo un grave rischio. Gli uomini che cercarono di rapirla, a Londra, quando era solo una bambina, li hanno scovati e vogliono lei, l'unica persona al mondo che credono in grado di trovare una spada leggendaria, oggetto di devozione di due spietate societa segrete che, da secoli, se ne contendono il possesso. Firenze, 1518. Rubesio Adel e suo figlio vivono di stenti, vendendo intrugli, pomate e rimedi ai creduloni di passaggio. Rubesio e costretto a farlo, per sopravvivere e per far crescere sano e forte suo figlio, ma i suoi scopi sono alti, ed e grande la sua aspirazione. Questo si ripete ogni volta in cui i suoi esperimenti falliscono, perche il destino che gli e stato avverso, potrebbe girare in suo favore al momento opportuno. L'alchimista si vede gia invitato nei salotti importanti di tutta Europa, ad insegnare ai colleghi che lo hanno deriso, ma la sua invenzione, lo Specchio dei Saggi, cambiera la sua vita, ma potrebbe, nelle mani sbagliate, trasformarsi in una catastrofe. Una catastrofe che Brenda, cinque secoli dopo, deve evitare. Ed e lei che, braccata, dovra scoprire il mistero che unisce Cosimo de' Medici al dono che lei e costretta ad accettare. Inizia la ricerca, aiutata da due ottimi alleati. Insieme a loro, capira che sua mamma ha sacrificato la vita perche lei realizzasse quel compito, e sono gli indizi che le ha lasciato quella donna a cui era cosi profondamente attaccata, che le permettono di andare avanti, ad essere pronta a tutto, per fermare la follia che perseguita la sua famiglia. Coinvolta in un viaggio dai ritmi serrati, dalle mille rivelazioni, Brenda scopre che l'arte che la circonda, nella citta in cui vive, narra una storia diversa da quella scritta sui libri, una storia che attende di essere vissuta. Ed essere riscritta."
