Conclave

When the Pope dies unexpectedly, 118 cardinals from around the world gather in the Vatican to elect his successor. Once the doors of the Sistine Chapel close, they are cut off from the outside world until a new pope is chosen.

Cardinal Lomeli, the man overseeing the secretive process, expects political manoeuvring and rivalries among the candidates. But as the voting begins, he uncovers a hidden secret that could shake the foundations of the Church.

As alliances shift and tensions rise behind closed doors, the election becomes far more than a spiritual decision—it becomes a battle of power, belief, and ambition.

Smart, gripping, and meticulously researched, Conclave is a tense thriller set within one of the world’s most secretive institutions.
