Delayed Death is a quintessentially "feel good" read and set in a lovely city, one of the most beautiful in Europe: Florence. The author is very adept at making you feel you're walking the streets of Florence and meeting all the characters in this expanded, crazy Italian family. The twists and turns are a delight and the ending is fully satisfactory. The main characters are so likeable (the policeman and the lingerie seller) that you can't wait to meet them again in the next book in the series!This is not high literature but the perfect read when you're in a bad mood, sad, stressed or feeling harassed. It will put you straight back into a good mood! As the author says of her own work, these are "happy books" echoing her own name which roughly translates into English as Happy Booker...
