A slyly intelligent page turner.PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

AN AURELIO ZEN MYSTERY

When a group of Austrian cavers in the Italian Alps come across human remains at the bottom of a deep shaft, everyone assumes the death was accidental - until the still unidentified body is stolen from the morgue and the Defence Ministry puts a news blackout on the case. The whole affair has the whiff of political intrigue.

Thats enough to interest Aurelio Zens boss at the Interior Ministry, who wants to know who is hiding what from who and why. The search for the truth leads Zen into the murky history of post-war Italy and obscure corners of modern-day society to uncover the truth about a crime that everyone thought was as dead and buried as the victim.

As the plot quickens, we are soon deep in Dibdins favourite territory: the murky political conflicts of Italys past and the oily chicanery of its present.SUNDAY TIMES
