A horrific fire has taken the lives of two people in a
small family-owned glassmaking factory on the island of
Murano near Venice. Detective Nic Costa and his partner
Gianni Peroni, along with inspector Leo Falcone, who were
banished to Venice following their last case in Rome, are
asked to simply confirm the local investigation's findings --
that it's nothing more than a tragic accident. It doesn't
take long for these three astute, intelligent men to
realize that things are not as they seem and a cover-up is
occurring. The corruption is far-reaching and soon, other
accidents are occurring. It all points to one man who's set
on attaining wealth and power, no matter what it takes.
Nic and Gianni's women friends, ex-FBI agent Emily Deacon
and Rome forensic pathologist Teresa Lupo, who've recently
arrived in Venice to spend two weeks vacation with them,
are soon involved in discovering the truth. What they find
goes beyond their expectations and surprises are in store
for everyone. Will the final resolution be a satisfying one
or not?
Hewson has written another spellbinding, atmospheric novel
of gripping suspense that will keep readers riveted to the
pages.
Accident or murder? Exiled to Venice, Roman detective Nic
Costa and his partner are ordered to investigate the fire
that claimed two lives at a Murano glass factory.
