Once the papal flats are burgled in 1901, Sherlock Holmes is summoned to Rome by Pope Leo XII. After learning from the pontiff that several priceless cameos which could prove reducing to the chapel, and perhaps determine the continuing future of the newly unified Italy, have been taken, Holmes is asked to recover them. Within a parallel history, Michelangelo, the toast of Rome in 1501 after the unveiling of his Pieta, is commissioned by Pope Alexander VI, the last of the Borgia pontiffs, with creating the cameos that will bedevil Holmes and the papacy four ages later. For followers of Conan Doyle's immortal detective, the game is obviously afoot. However, the great detective has never encountered an adversary that can compare with the main one with whom he crosses swords in The Vatican Cameos.
