"Like Cold Tuscan Stone, the novel is light on its feet, with a
protagonist who will strike readers as a good guy to hang around
with."-Booklist Perfect for readers of Donna Leon and Martin
Walker, this thrilling addition to David Wagner's Italian mysteries
immerses us in the sights, smells and tastes of Italy, this time in
a picture-perfect Alpine town with a surprising dark side Rick
Montoya is looking forward to a break from his translation business
in Rome-a week of skiing in the Italian Alps with old college buddy
Flavio. But Rick's success helping the Italian police with a murder
in Tuscany sends the Campiglio cops his way. An American banker
working in Milano is missing. The man's sister, an attractive and
spoiled divorcee, has no idea where he could be, nor do the locals
who saw him on his way to the slopes. With the discovery of a body,
Rick and Inspector Albani widen their list of suspects. Picturesque
resort Campiglio harbors old rivalries, citizens on the make, and a
cut-throat political campaign. Why would these local issues connect
to the missing banker? The investigation doesn't keep Rick and
Flavio from enjoying perfect ski conditions in the Dolomites and
glorious after-ski wines and bowls of fresh pasta. As for
women-Rick has to wonder if the banker's sister is just hitting him
up for information. The action heats up, testing laid-back Rick
whose uncle, a Roman cop, keeps urging him to make the police his
career. A murder in the Alps makes short work of translator Rick
Montoya's vacation, and he soon finds himself entrenched in the
investigation. But there's more to this picturesque community than
meets the eye, and it'll take a thrilling chase to solve the case
before anyone else gets hurt. Other books in the Rick Montoya
