"A superior police procedural" Mark Sanderson, The Times Crime Club
"Northern Italy's answer to Inspector Montalbano" Alessandro
Baricco September 2008. Commissario Arcadipane arrives at the scene
of a macabre discovery: the bones of twelve men and women buried in
the countryside near Torino. By the next morning, a task force
specialising in mass graves from WWII is already in place. But
something doesn't feel right: one of the femurs shows signs of an
operation that couldn't have taken place before the seventies.
Suspecting a cover-up, Arcadipane launches his own investigation,
enlisting his old mentor, Corso Bramard, long retired, and Isa, a
young officer still haunted by the unexplained death of her father.
These mismatched allies - one at last at peace, one jaded to the
point of breakdown and one under a permanent disciplinary cloud -
will unveil a cruel political conspiracy that someone wants covered
up for the second time. Translated from the Italian by Silvester
Mazzarella
