Chapter 19 Summary

Brüder walks through Sienna’s apartment, inspecting it and finding her old playbills. One of the SRS soldiers locates Sienna’s laptop and identifies the owner as having the initials “S.C.” Brüder suddenly places a call to his boss, implied to be the provost, and says he knows who Sienna is.

Meanwhile, Vayentha speeds away from the apartment building on her motorcycle, flabbergasted by her disavowal from the Consortium and fearful of what might happen to her next—the fates of other disavowed agents are unknown to her, and she fears the provost will send someone to assassinate her.

Chapter 20 Summary

Langdon and Sienna roll the Trike toward a military blockade that is blocking the bridge across the Arno. Abandoning the vehicle, they hide in the communal toilet of a nearby construction site adjacent to an arts college.

As they each ponder how to bypass the blockade, Langdon once again recalls the altered Botticelli painting from the Faraday pointer and suddenly realizes the pits of the Malebolge were placed in the wrong order—the letters were never meant to spell out “catrovacer” at all. He tells Sienna he knows where they need to go and that she should follow his lead.
