Das Königsprojekt
Carl Amery [i.e. C. Mayer
Seit Jahrhunderten verfolgt eine geheime Abteilung des Vatikans — so geheim, daß nicht einmal der Papst offiziell! von ihr Kenntnis nimmt — ihren „Großen Plan“: die Beseitigung der Glaubensspaltung. Mit Hilfe der MYST, einer nach Plänen von Leonardo da Vinci konstruierten Zeitmaschine, werden tapfere Schweizergardisten in die Vergangenheit geschickt, um die Geschichte „nachträglich“ im Sinne des hl. Stuhls zu verändern. Der Gardist Füßli ist mit einer besonders heiklen Aufgabe betraut — dem „Königsprojekt“.
