I misteri di Mercurio. Vol. 1. La tempesta

A fun and exciting novel set around one of the most mysterious works of the Italian Renaissance.

In a dimly lit room in the Palatine Gallery, the blackbird Mercurio hands Nina, Jamal and Lorenzo a scroll with a dark mystery. When lightning rips across the sky, the three youngsters find themselves in the Veneto countryside, in a far-off time.

Nearby is the farmhouse owned by Giorgione, but the famous painter is gone. Amid angry merchants, dangerous soldiers and other treacherous pitfalls, the three friends must find the artist and discover his secret, before they can return to Florence.
