The Monster of Florence (Marshal Guarnaccia, Book 10)
"'Nabb's account of the details is freshly horrifying, as are many of the characters who people the book. The vicious, incestuous suspect is...so vivid on the page that the reader feels the need of a shower after each of his many appearances... One of the many wonderful things about this book is the impossibility of distinguishing between fact and fiction, but that is, after all, the nature of justice in Italy.'" -- Donna Leon Sunday Times "'A haunting thriller where past and present collide, where ambition brutalises those who have most need of compassion and where lies are often more credible that truth'" -- Val McDermid Manchester Evening News "'A brilliant detective story'" -- T J Binyon Evening Standard "Credible, classy and compelling, this is crime fiction at its best" Sunday Times
