In 1595, François Cenci, a noble Roman, debauched, burdened with debts and tortured by jealousy, takes and sequesters his second wife Lucrezia and his daughter Beatrice in the Alban Hills.

From the Cenci palace to the Tordinona prison, all of Renaissance Italy is vividly reconstituted. After Shelley and Stendhal, Frederic Prokosch recounts this famous and dramatic judicial affair in a dazzling work.
