A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.

Leone is a Roman detective whose father once was a leading figure in the Mafia. When he is handed a file of compromising photographs of a high-placed politician, he is faced with the dilemma of hushing up the case and prove his loyalty to a corrupt system. When two bodies are later discovered, linked to the case, his situation becomes impossible to sustain and his past catches up with him as he walks an increasingly more fragile tightrope. The British author who is married to an Italian and now lives there once worked in television and is familiar with the sometimes stench of the corridors of power and sharply evokes her protagonist's moral uncertainties and the poisoned perils running through every strand of Italian society. Has Donna Leon found her match?
