Narrado por: Grover Gardner

Naples, 1931.

Together with his indefatigable partner, Brigadier Maione, Commissario Ricciardi, a man driven into solitude by his paranormal "gift" of seeing the final seconds in the lives of victims of violent deaths - a talent that also makes him a highly effective investigator - is conducting an investigation into the death of the beautiful and mysterious duchess of Camparino. The duchess' connections to Neapolitan privileged social circles and the local Fascist elite make the case a powder keg waiting to blow.

Basic Instincts

Set in Naples in the 1930s, this mystery novel explores how the basic instincts of love, passion, hunger, jealousy and fear drive human’s to commit criminal acts. It is complex, spellbinding and very Italian. I couldn’t put it down.

Fabulous italian crime story

You can not know who was firstborn; commisario Ricciardi or commisario Montalbano. Amazing atmosphere with certain spice; the commisario's Deed.
