Italy's Maigret returns in another smouldering noir from a master
of the police procedural "A master storyteller" Barry Forshaw,
Independent Parma is blanketed in snow, but this pristine, white
veneer cannot mask the stench of corruption. Its officials are no
longer working for its people - only for themselves - crime is out
of control and resentment festers in every district. Commissario
Soneri remains at heart an idealist, so the state of Parma wounds
him more than most. And now he is presented with three mysteries at
once, each more impenetrable than the last. In a river creek on the
outskirts of the city, tipped off by a local, he finds a mobile
phone that rings through the night but holds no data; an elderly
patient with senile dementia is reported missing from a hospice;
and the mayor of Parma, who was reported as taking a holiday on the
ski slopes, has disappeared off the face of the earth - just when
he seemed certain to be implicated in a seismic corruption scandal
at city hall.
