| Godfried Vos â the hero of The Sponsor, Part I â uncovers a sinister plot: the Mafia is preparing an attack on the legendary chess festival in Marostica. Together with blind detective Gino Cancellara, he sets out to expose the truth behind the so-called Fourth Mafia, a ruthless network of drugs traffickers across Europe. Their investigation leads deep into Italyâ s hidden history, where the secret Masonic lodge P2 and the clandestine Gladio network once operated as a state within a state. The landscape of The Sponsor II still bears the scars of the brutal World War II battles fought between Fascists and the Allied forces â battles whose consequences echo into the present. Against this charged backdrop, Godfried and Gino risk everything to confront organised crime. Their shared passions â chess, history, and Italian cuisine â thread through the narrative, giving this literary thriller a unique atmosphere and emotional depth. A special appendix includes detailed analyses of the chess games featured in the story, as well as recipes for the authentic Italian dishes enjoyed by the protagonists. |
