Description

Villa Triste is a gripping novel set against the backdrop of World War II Florence, Italy. In 1943, two sisters, Isabella and Caterina Cammaccio, find themselves trapped by the Nazi Occupation, forced to make life-altering decisions that will have far-reaching consequences. Sixty years later, a murder investigation unfolds in present-day Florence, with senior policeman Alessandro Pallioti at its centre. As he delves into the case, he uncovers a crime lost in the twilight of war, one whose deadly repercussions are still felt today. This tense and suspenseful thriller weaves together two seemingly disparate storylines, exploring themes of family, loyalty, and survival in the face of unimaginable adversity.
