À propos de cet audio
On their private island, the Arcangelo family defy the world: living in a decaying palazzo, making glass in a terrifying, archaic furnace, watching their absurd exhibition hall sink into disrepair. But now the world is coming to their dying outpost in a crumbling corner of a Venice that tourists never see. Police boats and vaporetti bring investigators, curiosity seekers, and one man who plans to own the property himself. With two family members consumed by the foundry fire, both mystery and opportunity have been bared to the bone.
On special assignment from Rome, Detective Nic Costa, along with his partner, his boss, and a dogged pathologist named Teresa Lupo, is getting in the way of progress, Venetian-style. They know that Uriel Arcangelo and his wife were murdered. They know that a predatory Englishman must be a suspect, as is the family of the murdered woman. And while everyone wants the Roman cops to give up and go home, they can¿t - because a matter of desire, death, and lies has just turned murderously on one of them....

Fantastic!
I discovered this author on audible and first read 'The Garden of Angels' and 'The Sacred Cut'. I remember trips to Rome and Venice with great fondness and the feeling of these places has stayed with me. I was lucky enough to see behind that tourist scenes there and I think that's why the stories feel so real to me, There is no doubt that the characters the narrator portrays are Italian. He does this with the inflection of his voice rather than a fake accent (thank goodness). He is amazing and matches perfectly with the writing style. This story, like the previous ones, has great depth and complexity but it doesn't confuse the reader. The characters are very human and the drama suspenseful and not contrived. The story has substance, I loved it. Although I live in Canada, what I love most is that David Hewson's stories are refreshingly set a wold away from the American continent.
