#EscapeSaturdayRead one of the best reads this year! Go back
to Florence in the 1960s with Inspector Bordelli
When a young boy vanishes, the police fear the worst,
which brings Inspector
Bordelli into an increasingly desperate investigation, in
the new mystery from
critics' favorite Marco Vichi. Florence, 1966. The rain is never-ending. When a young boy
vanishes on his way home
from school the police fear the worst, and Inspector
Bordelli begins an increasingly
desperate investigation. Then the flood hits. During the night of November 4th the
swollen River Arno, already
lapping the arches of the Ponte Vecchio, breaks its banks
and overwhelms the city.
Streets become rushing torrents, the force of the water
sweeping away cars and trees,
doors, shutters and anything else in its wake. In the aftermath of this unimaginable tragedy the mystery
of the child's
disappearance seems destined to go unsolved. But obstinate
as ever, Bordelli is not
prepared to give up.
