Argentario: A Deadly Vendetta. Vatican Secret.

In Robert Macan's gripping crime thriller Argentario, the dark underbelly of recent Italian history collides with a devastating family legacy across three decades. In May 1972, two fishermen, Gianfranco Zampa and Pasquale Dalla Chiesa, break into an upmarket Tuscan villa and alongside millions of Lire in cash, unwittingly steal a highly incriminating document - a heist that ultimately costs Gianfranco his life and forces Pasquale into a lifetime of drug-running for the mob. Two decades later, Gianfranco's son, Scipio Zampa, an agent in the Anti-Mafia Directorate, finds himself suspended on bogus grounds. Returning to his hometown of Porto Santo Stefano, he witnesses the arrest of his younger brother, Raffaele, on drug smuggling charges. When Raffaele's police escort is ambushed, leaving two charred bodies behind and his brother missing, Scipio is thrown into a high-stakes investigation that eerily mirrors his father's vanishing twenty-seven years prior. Digging into his family's hidden past, Scipio unearths the document, a highly classified 1969 agreement between the Vatican and the Mafia, setting him on a collision course with the highest echelons of Italian power.
