A young girl has mysteriously disappeared in Rome. As rain lashes the ancient streets, two men, Clemente and Marcus, sit in a café near the Piazza Navona and pore over the details of the case. They are members of the ancient Penitenzeri – a unique Italian team, linked to the Vatican, and trained in the detection of true evil.
But they are not alone. Sandra – a brilliant forensics expert with a tragic past – is also working on the case. When her path crosses theirs, not only do they make headway in the case of the missing girl, but they also uncover a terrible secret world, hidden in the dark recesses of Rome. A world that is as perfect as it is evil…
A spellbinding literary thriller from the author of The Whisperer, this novel offers a window onto the hidden secrets of Rome. Beautifully capturing the atmosphere of the city, it blends a page-turning plot with fascinating historical fact.

bellissimo!!!!
Secondo me la trilogia di Marcus è il meglio di Carrisi e…io ho iniziato (senza saperlo) dal secondo e poi il primo poi il terzo….E poi così lo consiglio perchè leggere il primo libro dopo aver letto il secondo mi ha regalato qualcosa in più del personaggio di Marcus 😉
Cuando llegas casi al final del libro, y crees que ya lo sabes todo sobre la historia, el escritor te demuestra realmente el significado de la palabra “inesperado”. Fue una sorpresa brutal (con el buen sentido de la palabr).
I particularly enjoy the different layers of simultaneous investigations that lead to the ending.The second book I have read by DC, and I can’t read to read another!
Interesting
Multiple narratives seamlessly integrated to provide a phenomenally engrossing read. One of the best crime , mystery books I have read. A great writer Donato definitely is.
Originally reviewed this and the review was wiped. Very strange. Excellent series, wonderful writer. How Dan Brown’s books should be. Carrisi needs more exposure out of his home country, he is extraordinary. Creepy, atmospheric and a great sense of place – Rome is a magical location.
