A rattling good read. At first I wondered if the translation was smoothly and effectively done, but I soon forgot this, either because it got better, or because it ceased to matter. Our detective, Chief Superintendent Ferrara, is a cool customer, respected and successful. When it seems he has a serial killer on his hands, one moreover who has identified seven victims of whom he will be the seventh, he becomes less cool. Written by a real life police chief, this complex plot involves and convinces, and in the end, I simply had to get it finished before normal life could resume.… (més)

A well plotted, police procedural. Well written, although with a slow start, soon all the threads begin to come together, and we have a great novel.

Synopsis:Michele Ferara is the head of the Squadra Mobile in Florence. He has been active in tracking down the Monster of Florence and proving that the serial killer was really several killers working together. This case, however, is a serial killer and there doesn't seem to be much connection among the victims. The rest of the book is a police procedural.
Review: This is a first book and falters throughout. Once he gets over himself and actually starts telling a story, it's not bad.
