Description
The Cold Summer by Gianrico Carofiglio is a gripping mystery set against the backdrop of southern Italy in 1992. A summer that will be remembered for all the wrong reasons, as a series of tragic events shook the region to its core. On May 23rd, a roadside explosion claimed the lives of Palermo judge Giovanni Falcone and his family, followed by the assassination of fellow anti-mafia judge Paolo Borsellino just weeks later. The violence spread to the Puglia region, where Maresciallo Pietro Fenoglio, a Carabinieri officer, finds himself at the centre of a new gang war. As Fenoglio navigates his personal crisis and the treacherous world of organised crime, an unexpected informant comes forward with crucial information about the inner workings of the gangs. The story unfolds through the testimony of this informant, offering a unique glimpse into the dark world of Italian crime in the 1990s.
