A Cold Death by Antonio Manzini
4.0
Brilliant mystery with my favourite type of character - 'grumpy policeman with personal issues who is great at his job'.
Helped evoke beautiful memories of my second home, Rome from an author who clearly knew the real city and not just the tourist version of it. That said, the novel isn't set there but in the rather bleak Aosta. Some excellent characters and relationships and a wonderful ending. So very authentically Italian and a thoroughly enjoyable mystery.
