Pope Leo's daughter, Kitty, is a witch who is always engaging herself in some form of adventure -- telling stories entwined within stories. All, of course, told from behind the scenes of the Vatican.
"I looked at him with glassy eyes, regretting deeply all the time I had invested in coming to know him.  Day after day – whenever I had the urge, that is – I’d ventured forth dreamily in the outskirts of the Vatican, privately, away from my father.
