Description
Rome, at the end of December, is a city of contrasts. The Field of Mars, once a place of beauty and entertainment, has been taken over by darkness and fear. Elaborately staged murders have become all too common, with the killer re-enacting gruesome scenes from popular theatre. A figure from the past reaches out to Flavia Albia's father for help, but he is away for the holidays. Albia seizes the commission, despite her reservations. As she delves deeper into the case, she realizes that nothing makes sense - not even the killer's method of re-enacting stage deaths. The authorities would prefer a cover-up, but Albia is driven to uncover the truth. Can she stop the mania before more lives are lost? And could her own family be on the list for a terrible stage death? The investigation leads Albia down a dark path, where nothing is as it seems and the line between reality and theatre blurs.
