truth uncovers shocking secrets from the past and
leads Argyll and Flavia into the path of some very
dangerous enemies indeed.
'There is nothing so satisfactory as the deconstruction
of a puzzle in the hands of such an erudite and sure-
footed author. Iain Pears is formidably knowledgeable,
loves Italy and is nicely cynical about the labyrinthine
twists of the Italian political system'
