   Summary

   "Let me help.” A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over “I love you."
   - Star Trek, 'The City on the Edge of Forever'

   Pope Innocentius may be, as the papers say, pure, unblemished, a saint in human form - but Vincent Benítez is very much a man, and wants nothing more than to go home.

   Thomas Lawrence will see him through, no matter the cost.
