В марте 1939 г., на пороге Второй мировой войны, конклав кардиналов собрался в Сикстинской капелле, чтобы выбрать нового папу римского—Пия XII, чья фигура до сих пор вызывает споры.

Аудиокнига историка и антрополога, лауреата Пулитцеровской премии Дэвида Керцера—это попытка ответить на вопрос о роли Пия XII во время войны непредвзято и аргументированно.
