Benedicto XIII, el afamado papa Luna, era menudo, extremadamente culto y sofisticado y, sobre todo, terco como buen aragonés —es a su irreductible negativa a abdicar que debemos la expresión popular «seguir en sus trece»—. Fue el último santo padre de Aviñón al que el concilio de Constanza de 1414 depuso y declaró antipapa. Pero ¿qué secreto esconde su trayectoria? ¿Por qué nunca quiso hablar de esa aciaga primavera de 1378 en la que nació el gran cisma de Occidente que perturbó durante treinta años la cristiandad y anticipó la escisión definitiva, un siglo después, de la Reforma?

The air is the first thing. For a solitary archivist on the fourth floor of a vast library, the world is not measured in sight or sound, but in scent. This is a life lived in the stacks, a world contained by the fire door and the heavy, metal-plated threshold. Inside, the air is honest. It is the dry, stable smell of paper fibers, acidic ink, and the sweet, vanilla-like decay of lignin. It is the smell of preservation, of time held still.

Il corpo è carbonizzato al punto che per accertarne l'identità bisogna ricorrere all'esame genetico. Il giorno dopo, Bochicchio sarebbe dovuto comparire in tribunale per la terza udienza nel processo a suo carico. Le accuse: riciclaggio, abusiva attività finanziaria, truffa. A denunciarlo erano stati trentasette clienti, tra cui l'ex CT della Nazionale di calcio Antonio Conte e altri personaggi di spicco dello sport italiano.
