Publisher Description

In the picturesque Tuscan hill town of Scandicci, the body of a girl is discovered. Scantily dressed, she is lying by the edge of the woods. The local police investigate the case - but after a week, they still haven't even identified her, let alone got to the bottom of how she died. Frustrated by the lack of progress, Chief Superintendent Michele Ferrara, head of Florence's elite Squadra Mobile, decides to step in. Because toxins were discovered in the girl's body, many assumed that she died of a self-inflicted drugs overdose. But Ferrara quickly realises that the truth is darker than that: he believes that the girl was murdered.

And when he delves deeper, there are many aspects to the case that convince Ferrara that the girl's death is part of a sinister conspiracy - a conspiracy that has its roots in the very foundations of Tuscan society

"A very good read. Michele Ferrara, head of the Squadra Mobile in Florence, investigates the death of a young woman, leading to crimes at the highest level of Florentine society. Another very engaging character on the European crime novel scene!"

    " This book was ok. It had twists and turns but I think I have missed some vital information regarding the characters as I have found out this is the 2nd book in the series. "

    " A young girl is found dead, an apparent suicide. Michele Ferrara, the top cop in Florence (who bears a resemblance to the author, also called Michele, also a cigar-smoker and the former top cop in Florence) suspects murder. Atmospheric and heaped with the kind of conspiracies you would expect to find in Italy. Good holiday read. "

    " Fast-paced novel following the exploits of Florence police chief Michele Ferrara. Complex plots involving paedophiles, drug dealers and mafia dons tie well together for an enjoyable read. "
