Smoke and Mirrors. The Hunters, #2

Smoke and MirrorsIn the aftermath of their fiery clash, an uneasy truce forged between Sophia's Hunters and the Dwellers of Rome allowed life to resume its relatively untroubled rhythm... almost.. but history warns, it is never a good idea to become complacent. To the north, a new nightmare materialises. Supported by a band of vindictive acolytes, Carlyle Worthington, the self-proclaimed Pope of Bologna, is determined bring the disparate territories of Italy under his authority and has no hesitation in neutralising anyone who dare thwart his ambition.
