The
unmarked
Fiat
sedan
departing
Castel
Gandolfo
snaked
downward
through
the
Alban
Hills
into
the
valley
below
.
In
the
back
seat
,
Bishop
Aringarosa
smiled
,
feeling
the
weight
of
the
bearer
bonds
in
the
briefcase
on
his
lap
and
wondering
how
long
it
would
be
before
he
and
the
Teacher
could
make
the
exchange
.
Twenty
million
euro
.
The
sum
would
buy
Aringarosa
power
far
more
valuable
than
that
.
As
his
car
sped
back
toward
Rome
,
Aringarosa
again
found
himself
wondering
why
the
Teacher
had
not
yet
contacted
him
.
Pulling
his
cell
phone
from
his
cassock
pocket
,
he
checked
the
carrier
signal
.
Extremely
faint
.
«
Cell
service
is
intermittent
up
here
,
»
the
driver
said
,
glancing
at
him
in
the
rearview
mirror
.
«
In
about
five
minutes
,
we
’
ll
be
out
of
the
mountains
,
and
service
improves
.
»
«
Thank
you
.
»
Aringarosa
felt
a
sudden
surge
of
concern
.
No
service
in
the
mountains
?
Maybe
the
Teacher
had
been
trying
to
reach
him
all
this
time
.
Maybe
something
had
gone
terribly
wrong
.
Quickly
,
Aringarosa
checked
the
phone
’
s
voice
mail
.
Nothing
.
Then
again
,
he
realized
,
the
Teacher
never
would
have
left
a
recorded
message
;
he
was
a
man
who
took
enormous
care
with
his
communications
.
Nobody
understood
better
than
the
Teacher
the
perils
of
speaking
openly
in
this
modern
world
.
Electronic
eavesdropping
had
played
a
major
role
in
how
he
had
gathered
his
astonishing
array
of
secret
knowledge
.
For
this
reason
,
he
takes
extra
precautions
.
Unfortunately
,
the
Teacher
’
s
protocols
for
caution
included
a
refusal
to
give
Aringarosa
any
kind
of
contact
number
.
I
alone
will
initiate
contact
,
the
Teacher
had
informed
him
.
So
keep
your
phoneclose
Now
that
Aringarosa
realized
his
phone
might
not
have
been
working
properly
,
he
feared
what
the
Teacher
might
think
if
he
had
been
repeatedly
phoning
with
no
answer
.
