Shortlisted for the 2021 Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize and
longlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger 2021. 'An impressive and
immersive debut set in a beautifully realized sixteenth-century
Florence' Antonia Hodgson 'A first-class historical thriller . . .
Bishop's spirited and richly detailed story is a tour-de-force'
David Baldacci 'Richly atmospheric . . . transports you to another
time and place' Ambrose Parry, author of The Way of All Flesh City
of Vengeance is an explosive debut novel in an historical thriller
series by D. V. Bishop, set in Renaissance Florence, which
continues with The Darkest Sin. Florence. Winter, 1536. A prominent
Jewish moneylender is murdered in his home, a death with wide
implications in a city powered by immense wealth. Cesare Aldo, a
former soldier and now an officer of the Renaissance city's most
feared criminal court, is given four days to solve the murder:
catch the killer before the feast of Epiphany - or suffer the
consequences. During his investigations Aldo uncovers a plot to
overthrow the volatile ruler of Florence, Alessandro de' Medici. If
the Duke falls, it will endanger the whole city. But a rival
officer of the court is determined to expose details about Aldo's
private life that could lead to his ruin. Can Aldo stop the
conspiracy before anyone else dies, or will his own secrets destroy
him first?
