The Bologna Vendetta

di Tom Benjamin (Autore)

Constable, 2024

'Plenty of Bologna, lots of mystery and conspiracy, and even some heartbreak via Daniel's past. Highly recommended!' - Amazon reviewer, ????? --------------- Instead of escaping reality to this fantastic city, this city of phantoms, I was rushing towards it - hard fate awaited me in this soupy shade of a place... In the oppressive heat of summer in Bologna, English detective Daniel Leicester is reliving his beloved wife Lucia's final days. Vivid memories have been awakened by the sight of her bicycle, missing since the accident that killed her, ridden by a stranger through the city's tight medieval streets. As unfinished business bleeds - quite literally - into the present, the sickening realisation that Lucia's death wasn't accidental dawns on Daniel. He embarks on a quest for the truth, and this most personal of crusades leads him to two contrasting worlds: the secretive, ancient realm of freemasonry, and the revolutionary 'Reclaim Bologna' activist movement. What links these two opposing factions? Is there a chance Lucia wasn't the woman Daniel believed her to be? And will the truth be too painful, or too perilous, to bear? --------------- **Readers and reviewers are loving The Bologna Vendetta!: 'Brilliant characters... If you like a good thriller with a strong storyline or have read Donna Leon and David Hewson and have enjoyed ...then this series will be your next favourite read !'** - Amazon reviewer, ????? 'Evocative... immersive... old and new mysteries come together in a satisfying and moving finale. Highly recommended' - Amazon reviewer, ????? 'The plot twists and turns at a delicious pace and will keep you guessing!' - ITALIA! 'Steeped in atmosphere and intrigue, The Bologna Vendetta burrows under the skin of contemporary Italy. Intelligent, incisive and compelling.' - Orlando Murrin, author of Knife Skills for Beginners 'A galloping and topical read' - The Florentine 'I have read all this series and loved every single one... I really didn't want to put it down and read it in only a couple of days' - Amazon reviewer, ????? 'A real treat. One of the few series that I've read throughout and this is the best of the lot. Beautifully drawn characters, a wonderful evocation of Bologna, a twisty plot and a genuinely moving and clever callback to an earlier event. Oozes class.' - Trevor Wood, author of the DCI Jack Parker series 'This brilliant series is consistently unmissable and The Bologna Vendetta is no exception; intriguing, intelligent and thoroughly compelling, it's the best yet!' - Karen Cole, Hair Past Freckle book review blog
