Praise for Conclave

Robert Harris's Conclave turns the factional infighting of the supporters of the competing candidates into a gripping narrative. The narrator, Roy McMillan, catches them perfectly: pompous Venetian, charming African, sly New Englander, harassed Roman dean, all manipulated by the dead Pope's iron will.
