Florentine police chief Michele Ferrara is frustrated, his efforts to get to the bottom of several mysterious killings getting nowhere.
The deeper he digs into the shocking history of the birthplace of the Renaissance, the more he uncovers, discovering a depraved group of lawbreakers who hide behind a veil of respectability to keep their terrible crimes a secret.
Slowly Ferrara outwits even the leader of a devil-worshipping sect and a master criminal as he bids to bring justice where only fear and injustice has been allowed to run amok for centuries.
Based on Michele Giuttari’s own experiences from his time as a police chief in Florence, Death Under A Tuscan Sun is written with the authority and knowledge of someone who has lived what he writes about.
Set in one of the most beautiful and historically important cities in the world, let alone Europe or Italy, this pacy thriller enhances the already established reputation of Giuttari.
A respected opponent of the Mafia, Guittari was responsible for reopening the ‘Monster of Florence’ case and also jailed several top ‘family’ figures. This is a taught and gripping thriller.
