When his cold and treacherous son, Cesare, grows out of control, Pope Alexander VI struggles to balance the demands of his thrice-married daughter and becomes a pawn in the schemes of her latest paramour before the family's increasing sovereignty compels Rome to send envoy spies to their Italian city-state region. In the Name of the Family explores the House of Borgia's final years, in the company of a young diplomat named Niccolò Machiavelli
