Summary
Paris in the spring. Shots ring out from a gallery. A robbery -- a murder -- and the beginning of another epic, original Broken Sword adventure! Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse builds on the rich heritage of the classic Broken Sword adventure gaming saga. Intrepid lawyer George Stobbart and sassy journalist Nico Collard are hurled onto the trail of a murderous conspiracy forged in the cauldron of war-torn Europe. A conspiracy whose roots lie in mysteries older than the written word. Armed only with logic, integrity and a wry sense of humor, can George and Nico outwit evil forces both ancient and modern and save mankind from disaster? From a Curse forged by the Devil himself?
Storyline
Everything centers around the painting La Maledicció. George Stobbart and Nicole Collard witness as a masked man steals La Maledicció and kills the gallery owner. Both have their motivations to solve the crime - George works for the painting's insurer, Nico is a reporter and the police are incompetent - and so they unravel a conspiracy which is somehow connected to the Gnostic Gospels.
