Un archeologo scomparso. Un pugnale con incisioni in una lingua misteriosa. Una setta segreta cinese. Premonizioni e indizi convergono sotto la superficie di Roma, dove si concentrano leggende di antiche divinità e di civiltà lontane. Una missione pericolosa per la Compagnia dei Serpenti: Riccardo, un debito in storia ma coraggio da vendere, Gianni, secchione ma non troppo, e Milena, una tredicenne che vive pericolosamente ma senza mai rovinarsi il trucco.

Durante un'immersione, tre ragazzi scoprono un oggetto misterioso che riposava da millenni sui fondali del Tirreno. Dentro c'è la lettera, mai arrivata a destinazione, con cui Scipione Emiliano riferiva al Senato che i sommi sacerdoti fenici, dopo la distruzione di Cartagine, erano fuggiti con la statua d'oro del dio Baal verso l'oasi di Anphar. Per Riccardo, Milena e Gianni, i "Serpenti del mare", a questo punto la vacanza diventa una pericolosa caccia al tesoro! Età di ascolto: da 13 anni.

"E se il pittore Bosch fosse stato uno stregone che parlava delle opere di Dio per confondermi? Se, per assurdo, Isabella fosse stata sua complice, e non una vittima dei suoi incantamenti? E se io stesso fossi stato preda di qualche sostanza che mi rendeva schiavo delle sue azioni?". Siamo all'inizio del Cinquecento e Giovanni Ciocchi, ai tempi in cui narra questa storia, è ancora molto lontano dal giorno del 1550 in cui verrà eletto papa e prenderà il nome di Giulio III.
