Review:

"'Credible, classy and compelling, this is crime fiction at its best'" * Sunday Times * "'The intrigue is absorbing, and the Florentine background brilliantly portrayed... We fans...are as fascinated by [Guarnaccia's] diet as by his deductions.'" * Evening Standard * "'A perfect example of crime-and-pleasure... so cunningly plotted that it is only at the end that you realise that not one strand of the intricate tapestry has been superfluous...'" -- Antonia Fraser * Spectator * "'Wonderfully satisfying' " * Daily Mail *
