Description

"Know why she's smiling?" he asked, pointing a small torch at the corpse. "Fish hooks. Two fish hooks at the corners of her mouth, a bit of nylon, pull it round the back of the head and tie a knot." Amaldi noticed the metallic glint at the corners of the taut mouth. Inspector Amaldi had enough problems. A city choked by a rubbish strike, a beautiful student harassed by a telephone stalker, an arson case at the city orphanage. Then the mutilated bodies begin to appear.

Media Reviews

"'A roman noir as dark as the soul of the killer, elegant and precise writing that describes the daily tribulations of an Italian city plagued by strikes. Society falls apart, the investigation leads nowhere. And yet Amaldi works his way through a puzzle anchored in the past.' Le Point 'A wonderful first novel that will seduce the fans of deranged murderers in the style of Hannibal Lecter. And beautifully written to boot.' RTF"
