The City of the Living
by Nicola Lagioia
Description
A novel that has all the impact of actual fact, a piece of investigative journalism that hovers between In Cold Blood and True Detective, in twenty-first century Rome.
From the murder case that has most profoundly roiled the consciences of Italy in recent years comes a riveting, powerful novel that perfectly recounts our time and the darkest abysses of the human soul. A book you won’t be able to put down until the very last page. A book that’s hard to forget.
