Features Italian crime writers who present nine short-stories with settings ranging from Milan to Palermo by way of Rome and even Guadeloupe. This work includes tales of ordinary criminals: a drug-addled cosmetic surgeon, inept blackmailers and various other low-lifes lusting after easy money.
Italian crime writing is replacing that of Scandinavia as the fastest growing in the genre. The huge success of Niccolo Ammaniti, followed by the Gabriele Salvatore film of the same name took the UK by storm. Andrea Camilleri''s Inspector Montalban series (Picador), Carlo Lucarelli''s Almost Blue (Vintage) and carte Blanche (Europa) and Massimo Carlotto''s The Good-bye Kiss (Europa) are further evidence of this surge. These authors, and others, are represented in this volume, which contains nine gripping and often darkly hilarious stories.
