During the 1958 World Expo, in Brussels, a part of the original manuscript of Mozart’s Requiem Mass containing the last four words ever written by the great composer was stolen.

The story involves international intrigue and a death-defying plot that unfolds in one of the most architecturally unique buildings in the world.
