A chilling, gripping and perceptive novel based on the real-life
case of a Florentine serial killer, from the highly acclaimed
Magdalen Nabb Marshal Guarnaccia of the Florence carabinieri is
first puzzled and then irritated when he is dragged into a
last-ditch attempt to nail the Monster, a vicious serial killer who
has ritually slaughtered seven courting couples in the most brutal
of circumstances. But he is soon sucked into the horror and squalor
of a multi-layered case that has confounded the authorities for
over ten years. So when a case is made out against the wrong man -
a monster in his own right who beats his wife and sexually abuses
his daughter - who is going to admit it? Summoning the courage to
speak out, the Marshal rapidly realises that no one wants to
listen. It is more comfortable for everyone, even the wrongly
accused man, if the blood-soaked vineyards keep their secret of
what really happened on the Saturday nights of the new moon...
