The Black Rose Of Florence (Michele Ferrara) - Softcover
Synopsis
A strikingly beautiful young woman is found dead in her Florence apartment. She lies on her bed, naked, a black rose between her legs. And the murders do not stop there: shortly afterwards, a woman is burned to death in a church, and a man is shot on the Ponte Vecchio.
Chief Superindendent Michele Ferrara is all too familiar with the dark side of Florence. But he has never seen anything of this magnitude before - he is up against a mysterious, powerful enemy who would do anything to hide his identity, and manages to controls events at every turn.
As more violent deaths occur, Ferrara has to face the most dangerous investigation in his entire career and must confront deadly secrets from his own past . . .
Originally published in Italian as Le rose nere di Firenze.

Review
"absorbing" and "Giuttari does a good job of fostering an atmosphere of menace, with powerful dark forces operating behind the scenes." —Publishers Weekly
"“Giuttari offers extremely credible procedure, a hero who gets more fascinating with each book, and scenes of Florence that may even surpass Donna Leon’s of Venice.” —Booklist
