Description
Bologna, city of secrets and suspicion. A dark underside lurks beneath its beauty, waiting to be uncovered. When the body of a radical protestor is found floating in one of its underground canals, the usual suspects come to mind: the police. But for private investigator Daniel Leicester, this case is different. His son-in-law's connection to the former chief of police makes him an unlikely suspect, and yet he receives a call from the dead man's lover that sets him on a trail leading back to the 1970s. As Daniel delves deeper into the mystery, he unravels a web of secrets, deceit, and corruption that goes all the way to the heart of the present-day political establishment. The city's dark past and present collide in a tense and brooding thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end.
